Joe Torre and Don Mattingly parted ways with the Yankees this month, but they
may stay together in a major league dugout next season.

Two major league officials said yesterday that the Los Angeles Dodgers
planned to fire Grady Little as their manager and replace him with Torre, who
would make Mattingly a coach on his staff. The officials spoke on condition
of anonymity.

Mattingly joined Torre’s staff as a hitting coach in 2004 and was promoted
to bench coach last season. After Torre turned down the Yankees’ one-year
contract offer to return as manager, Mattingly pursued the job. He found out
yesterday that he had lost out to Joe Girardi.

Yet with another opportunity seeming more and more real, Mattingly was not
devastated.

“He was in great spirits,” said one of the officials, who spoke with
Mattingly after the Yankees had decided on Girardi. “For what happened, he
was in great spirits. He’s confident. He knows he’s good. He knows he’ll
manage in the big leagues someday.”

The Dodgers, who were disappointed with their 82-80 finish under Little, had
singled out Girardi as a possible replacement. Now they are focusing on
Torre, 67, who said after leaving the Yankees that he was not ready to retire.

Mattingly, 46, has ties to the Dodgers’ organization through his son
Preston, who was a first-round pick of the team in 2006. The Yankees asked
Mattingly to stay with the organization, but he said no.

“Don will use this time to reflect on this experience while considering
future family and career options,” said a statement released through
Mattingly’s agent, Ray Schulte. “In the meantime, he did inform the Yankees
that given the circumstances he won’t accept a coaching position within the
organization during 2008.”
