The Dodgers are in search of a new manager as Don Mattingly won't be returning.

"Donnie Baseball" and the club mutually parted ways after he turned down a contract extension over the weekend due to their being no guarantee of him retaining his coaching staff, according to CBS Sports.

3 Possible Destinations For Don Mattingly

Mattingly led Los Angeles five winning seasons at the helm, including three straight division titles, but playoff swoons ran rampant during his tenure. The Dodgers won 92 games this season, but lost the NLDS in five games to the Mets despite throwing Clayton Kershaw and Zack Greinke in four of those contests.

With Mattingly (446-363) out as manager, here are three possible replacements for him on the Dodgers bench.

Cubs Go Down On 'Back To The Future' Day

1) Cal Ripken Jr.

The Ironman showed during the NLCS that being in the broadcast booth isn't necessarily playing to his strengths, but perhaps he'll try his hand in managing. Ripken has shown interest in managing in the past and though he may be more suited to try and turn around the Nationals franchise, anytime there's an opening anywhere in the league it makes sense to consider him for the job.

2) Bud Black

Though his tenure with the Padres came to an unceremonious end, Black brings plenty of experience to the table and could warrant some attention from the Dodgers. The 2010 Manager of the Year also has experience working in Los Angeles and he learned under one of the best from 2000-06 when Mike Scioscia had him on his staff as the Angels pitching coach. Black won the World Series in the City of Angels in 2002. The former pitcher had a long tenure with the Padres, though he oversaw a collapse in 2010 and was eventually fired this past June. Overall, he is 649-713 as a manager.

3) Ron Roenicke

The Dodgers could opt to promote from within by making their third base coach the new skipper, and Roenicke brings plenty of experience with him. Roenicke captured the Brewers first NL Central title in 29 years in his first year at the helm in 2011 and led the team to back-to-back winning seasons in his first two years in the dugout. The former outfielder a collapse in 2014 and was eventually relieved of his duties after Milwaukee got off to a dreadful start in 2015. Overall, Roenicke is 342-331 as a manager.
