Dodgers first base coach Clayton McCullough and Padres special asst A.J. Ellis are both out of the running, per sources.Rogers adds that McCullough was eliminated from the race by the White Sox while Ellis took himself out of the running because of family concerns.
Ellis played 11 years in the big leagues with the Dodgers, Miami Marlins, Philadelphia Phillies and Padres. He was a .239 career hitter who served as Clayton Kershaw's personal catcher with LA. He has been working in more of a front office role with the Padres since his playing career ended and is still highly-regarded as a managerial candidate in the future.
