Will we ever see a player/manager in baseball again?

They were talking on the Astros broadcast about Frank Robinson getting a HR in his 1st game as a player/manager and it got me thinking will we ever see another one? In this day and age of baseball I don't think we'll ever seen on again plus what owner would take that risk. Besides there are not many players right now you'd say he'd be a great manager.

What would be the advantage?

I disagree
Dustin Pedroia
Chase Utley
Jimmy Rollins
Yadiar Molina
Jason Giambi last year was almost hired
Smoltz mentioned Wainwright and other guy said Tori Hunter

He'd have to be a role player with diminishing skills and is honest with himself when it comes to what he still has left in the tank.

The way GMs are now the organization King and managers are being deemphasized it is possible

I think that would be cool if they started doing that again

Supposedly, Paul Konerko was a serious candidate for the White Sox job and they hired Ventura instead. I think it would be pretty sweet.

I think it would be really cool but I don't think it will happen again for a very, very long time if ever

I bet David Wright would take the Mets further than Terry Collins.

LeBron is the player/coach in Cleveland now. It could happen (officially) in baseball.
