If it was truly going to be someone already on the crew, the announcement would have already been made.
This guy wrote it up pretty nicely:
Perhaps the most convincing line to me:
“Hinch has…done something I prize: he’s convinced Detroit’s pitchers to buy into the idea of a positionless bullpen, despite common wisdom being that pitchers like rigid, pre-assigned roles”
This is the EXACT type of manager this team needs to truly push for titles, and if Lombard has learned even half of these types of tactics from Hinch he would be an excellent choice.
