Still going this offseason

Somebody here asked, so yes, the blog will still be going during the offseason. It won’t be quite as much news on a regular basis, and it might have more links to other articles that might be of interest, but I hope to keep the discussion going. No matter how much or how little the Tigers do, it should be a good winter to follow. And the way the NFL season is going, it’s not like there’s much else better to do.

One piece of news I can pass along is that the Nationals have not requested permission to interview Tigers coaches Lloyd McClendon or Gene Lamont in their thus-far secret managerial search. It looks like the A’s and Rangers have their lists of finalists set.

Finally, if you haven’t seen this yet and are looking for a good piece of reading, check out Wright Thompson’s piece on Kenny Rogers’ old high school teammates on ESPN.com.
