Sounds like Joe Maddon’s job search is going swimmingly.
After agreeing to part ways with the Chicago Cubs after five seasons, the 65-year-old manager reportedly has drawn interest from a number of teams, especially the Angels.
In fact, Maddon reportedly will interview with Los Angeles early this week, according to ESPN’s Buster Olney — and they appear to be his No. 1 choice, per The Athletic’s Ken Rosenthal.
