Joe Giradi
Likely going to back to Cubs where he was catcher.

He's going to the Cubs. That has to be the worst kept secret ever. Plus he didn't get along with management anyway, Dayton's not going to hire someone who will clash with him.

Ugh. Oh well, it sounded like a good idea.

At this point all that could keep Bell from being the manager next year is his health IMO.

The Royals did make a managerial move today though. Frank White's not returning to coach AA Wichita in 2007. He's going to be moved to a player development position.

The rumor/speculation was that Dayton was eyeing Fredi Gonzalez, the Braves' 3rd base coach. But he got hired by the Marlins.

I wouldn't be so sure about Girardi to Chicago. Apparently the Cubs don't like Girardi's power hungriness and have yet to contact him.

That would be the only thing that could ruin it I think. Nobody has really said what it is that Girardi has been so power hungry about. Girardi did a good job but it's amazing how many people rave about him and not the job the Marlins' GM did with all of those trades to bring those young players in.

I think he'll end up in Chicago, but stranger things have happened. Funny, I was looking at places a few weeks back in Chicago and they guy actually told me that Dusty Baker's place would be available starting in mid Nov. which was before any announcement. Not that it wasn't already known pretty much. The place was decent but definately not worth what they were wanting.
I grew up a Royals fan and Cubs fan, in part b/c of the shared hatred for the Cards and when I was little my best friend had a way older brother that took us to opening day at Wrigley. Its been great to be a fan of 2 of the sorriest teams
