With the general manager meetings and Thanksgiving in the rearview mirror, the New York Yankees are about to get back to their hiring search.

The Yankees plan to interview additional candidates for their managerial opening, sources confirmed to Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic, and will reportedly speak to Carlos Beltran about the job Wednesday morning.

Beltran announced his retirement in early November after winning his first World Series with the Houston Astros.

Since dismissing Joe Girardi at the end of October, the Yankees have interviewed five potential replacements: Chris Woodward, Eric Wedge, Rob Thomson, Hensley Meulens, and Aaron Boone.

It's not clear how many more candidates they plan to speak to, according to Rosenthal, but the Yankees don't seem to be in a rush to find a skipper since no other club is looking.

Managing general partner Hal Steinbrenner said the team expects to speak to fewer than 10 candidates for the position, according to MLB.com's Bryan Hoch. GM Brian Cashman added that the Yankees don't necessarily need a new manager before the winter meetings, which start Dec. 10, and they aren't treating Christmas or New Year's Day as a hard deadline either.

Under Girardi, the Yankees finished second in the American League East last season with a 91-71 record. They were eliminated in Game 7 of the American League Championship Series by the Astros.
