[DodgerKing]

Even though the playoffs are still going on, there have been a lot of off season changes by the teams already out.

Earlier today Jim Leland stepped down as Tigers manager.

I don't know what to think about that. He has never managed at any level before.

I think Price is the right choice. He's been a great pitching coach. He seems like he holds his pitchers accountable for what they do on the mound. Which is more than could be said about the previous manager who did not hold his every day players accountable for what they did on the field. No one knows how well he will do but I think he's worth the risk.

I'm very interested to see how this Jacoby Ellsbury situation shakes out. Also, I read today that the Dodgers are a likely destination for Stephen Drew.

They only let one coach go.

Who doesn't like him? I don't follow the Dodgers closely, but I haven't heard this before.

Seriously? How stupid are they? He is not worth that anymore.

Unbelievably bad contract. He could regain his past form but I really doubt it. I thought his best chance at success now was to come out of the bullpen. But for $35 million he will be starting.

Awful contract! I don't know what the Giants are thinking, Lincecum is done.

Full no-trade clause too....

The Dodgers announced on Tuesday that they have agreed to a four-year deal with Cuban middle-infield prospect Alexander Guerrero that, according to industry sources, is worth $28 million.

Well, there goes another potential manager for the Tigers.

Originally it looked like Arizona would give Gibson permission to talk with the Tigers, but it looks like that has changed.

It's time for these international players to be in the draft. Why should a player like Puig get to be a free agent but not Bryce Harper?

I agree and this comes from someone who's team got a great player that way. (Chapman)

Because Puig played pro ball with another team. When players at the pro level are no longer under contract, they become free agents. Like all free agents, any team can bid on them. The only difference is the league in which he played pro ball is in a different country.

Drafts are for amateur players.

Fox Sports reporting that the Washington Nationals are planning to hire major league veteran Matt Williams as their next manager.
