Is Astros’ Dusty Baker Set to Retire?
The Astros baseball team certainly doesn’t have it easy at all. When a team is used to having one manager for some time, it’s hard to part ways. But that might be happening for this particular team, and soon! Dusty Baker has been with the boys for four long years, and now, in 2023, he might just be planning on retiring. What will the team do next?
Dusty Baker – Retirement Plans?
It’s not easy for the Huston baseball team, Astros – and it doesn’t look like things will be getting much better. They lost in Game 7 of the ALCS, and now they must prepare for another loss that might sting a little more.

Baker Might Still Be Around
Dusty Baker got his first managerial role in 1993, and, as recent reports suggest, he might not be leaving the sports scene for good. He has expressed an interest in staying in the game, just not as a manager.
He has been a manager for 26 long seasons, and the Astros had four runs in a role in the ALCS and two World Series appearances. Suffice it to say, Baker has become a valued asset to the team and their level in the baseball organization.
