Angels reportedly giving two-hour written test to managerial candidates
The Los Angeles Angels have an unconventional way of testing potential managerial candidates as part of their interview process.
According to Jon Morosi of MLB.com, the Angels are putting their potential managers through a two-hour written test featuring questions that cover all aspects of the job.

This is the Angels’ first managerial search since the end of the 1999 season, as the now-departed Mike Scioscia left after this season. They’re obviously being thorough about it and putting a bit of a spin on the traditional interview process.
