I thought I would start a thread where we can discuss some of the offseason things going on around the league!

 

First, I was wondering what everyone thought about all the big names that Jim Leyland brought to Detroit to help coach? Lloyd McClendon bullpen coach, Gene Lamont third base coach, Don Slaught hitting coach, Rafael Belliard infield coach and Andy Van Slyke first base, outfield and baserunning coach.

 

Will Jim Tracey make a difference in Pittsburgh?

 

Here are a list of some of the unrestricted FA, where would they fit in or will they even leave? Johnny Damon, Paul Konerko, Hideki Matsui, Danny Baez, Kenny Rogers, Shawn Estes, Rafael Furcal, Nomar Garciaparra, AJ Burnett, Brad Ausmus, Roger Clemens, Mike Piazza, Kenny Lofton, Ugueth Urbina, Billy Wagner, Matt Morris, Reggie Sanders, Larry Walker, Brian Giles, Ramon Hernendez, JT Snow, Randy Winn, Preston Wilson, etc!

Reggie probably going to stay with Cards, finally found a home Walker probably to retire, not sure about Morris. cardinals probably be looking for another OF

 

Pirates can get better, but just can't afford to get too good. Detroit is another story, they may not be that far off.

 

Cashman may be out in NY, who's going to want that job?

Morris and Sanders will stay with the cards. They have got the money to pick up the other outfielder without losing anybody. Larry Walker will retire at seasons end, so that provides the Cards with an extra $12.5 million a year to spend on somebody like.....Johnny Damon?......Hideki Matsui?........just to name a couple.

 

But for now, the Cards are still playing, so they aren't even thinking about the off-season.

I could see the Cards going more after an OF like Randy Winn!

why would the Cardinals wanna sign another center fielder when they already have one of the best in the game?

 

theres not really alot of big name superstars out there this year. i figure Konerko and Matsui, the 2 best power hitters available, will stay where they're at. Johnny Damon, AJ Burnett, and Rafael Furcal will probably be some of the biggest names switching teams. i bet alot of teams will be after Billy Wagner too(Theo Epstein, you better be one of them)

    • Im asking everyone to keep roy whited and his family in your prayers. Coach whited won back to back state championships at white county in 98-99. He is very well liked and respected in this area. For those of you that dont know he went missing 3 days ago. No one knows where he is. His truck was found in a rural part of the county. Thanks again. We are all very concerned. 
    • West would be a good team to get behind if they can pull it off again like last year. That championship game last year was awesome. 
    • I say that because he stepped out of a MUCH better situation on his own than he would see at least his first 3 years at DCA and it would take at least that much to bring him back to coaching. There are other fish in the sea, but again money talks. Need to fix the girls hoops too. Now I'll try again. Who has Pierce locked in for his staff? Hearing a McGavock man but not the Iceman.
    • I’ve heard mostly good things from the gridiron. Lots of optimism. It sounds like the portal has mostly helped, though there are a few expected defections. Comeback year!
    • Rudesell 1 year at Crockett. Coach Tate 2 weeks a Bradford. South Gibson supposedly going with jcs middle school coach. Which isn’t who I thought would get it, I know the top 2 was between him and Obion girls head coach.
