Steve Mitchell / USA TODAY Sports

The Arizona Diamondbacks appear to be interested in hiring Atlanta Braves first-base coach Eddie Perez to be the team's manager.

Perez, an 11-year catcher in the majors, is also drawing interest for the Colorado Rockies' managerial vacancy, according to David O'Brien of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

He's coached in the Braves organization since 2006.

The Diamondbacks fired manager Chip Hale and general manager Dave Stewart on Oct. 3 after seriously underachieving this season.
