Question
Who are active managers who played under Joe Torre?

Answer
Hi Stacie,

Thanks for writing.

Despite the decades of managerial experience under Joe Torre's belt, only one current manager - Ron Gardenhire -ever played on a Major League team Torre managed.

While Torre was on his way out as manager of the 1981 Mets, Ron Gardenhire (current manager of the Twins) was just starting his Major League career.  

Two others: Bruce Bochy and John Gibbons were in the Minor League system of the Mets while Torre was the Mets manager so I suppose you could say he managed them during spring training but... Gardenhire is the only player he managed at the Major League level.

Best Wishes,

Geoff
