Multiple sources indicated that Brad Ausmus was at Daikin Park last Thursday, the day before Randy Flores was hired as general manager. While the club has not confirmed, another source stated late Sunday that Ausmus was interviewing for the GM position. He has previously been a finalist for the Astros' GM job and interviewed for their manager job in 2020.
