Larry B. is going to get some interviews.
Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

He's rumored to be a top candidate for the Marlins job.

And nobody yelled at them like a meany.

Can't have that.  Not with precious wittle dandelions like Lieberthal, Abreu & Patricia ready to burst into tears at a moment's notice.

:'( :-D :'( :-D

And Detroit has hired Jim Leyland

QuotePITTSBURGH -- Jim Leyland has agreed to manage the Detroit Tigers, a person close to the negotiations told The Associated Press.

The Tigers scheduled a "major" announcement for the late afternoon, but declined to say what it was about.

Soon after Alan Trammell was told he was not welcomed back as manager Monday morning, Leyland was en route to the Motor City.

And after interviewing with Tigers president and general manager Dave Dombrowski on Monday night, Leyland told The Detroit News he'd accept the Tigers job if it's the right fit.

"If there's a fit for both parties and I'm offered the position, I'll accept it," he told the newspaper.

Dombrowski also interviewed Juan Samuel and Bruce Fields -- both from Trammell's staff -- the Detroit News reported, before discussing the opening with Leyland.

"I am driven to move quickly because I think there could be a lot of interest in Jim Leyland," said Dombrowski, adding his search could end as soon as Tuesday.

Leyland, a former Florida, Pittsburgh and Colorado manager, told The Associated Press that the Tigers called him Monday morning to set up an interview with him that night.

"It's well known that I interviewed with Philadelphia last winter, and I'd like to manage again," Leyland said last month.

Leyland helped the Marlins win the 1997 World Series -- with Dombrowski as general manager -- and was a two-time NL Manager of the Year while leading the Pirates. He was 72-90 with the Rockies in 1999, his last season as manager.

QuoteIn Detroit yesterday, Leyland met with Tigers general manager Dave Dombrowski concerning his coaching staff.

That staff will include former Pirate Don Slaught as the Tigers' hitting coach, former Pirates managers Gene Lamont (bench coach and third-base coach) and Lloyd McClendon (bullpen coach) and possibly former Pirates infielder Rafael Belliard (infield coach).

In addition, Leyland told the Detroit Free Press, he wants former Pirates center fielder Andy Van Slyke to be the first base and outfield coach.

Van Slyke is expected to give Leyland an answer as soon as today.

GET MIKE LAVALLIERE! :D
