Joe Girardi to Manage Team USA on the way to Olympics 2020

Baseball is back in the 2020 Summer Olympics to be staged in Japan, and Joe Girardi is back as manager of Team USA, with the ultimate goal of gaining a berth and then winning the tournament.

“I look onward to leading Team USA as we struggle for a gold medal and look to qualify for the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games,” he said in a statement.”

Girardi hasn’t managed since he was unceremoniously dumped by the New York Yankees after their seven-game loss to the Houston Astros in the 2017 American League Championship Series, replaced by the untried and inexperienced Aaron Boone.

He’s been a television baseball analyst since then, but managing is certainly in his blood.

It would have been nice to have seen how Girardi might have fared with 2018, 100-win Yankees, who lost to Boston in a four-game AL Division Series when the pitching staff collapsed.

He’s following some greats as manager of the U.S. Olympic baseball team: Hall of Famers Tommy Lasorda and the late Frank Robinson, plus Davey Johnson, all had the job with many different results.
