Kirby Arnold decided to call Brian Goldberg. I'm sure you'll be surprised to hear that Jr's agent says he is in great shape, and raring to play anywhere, anytime.

I’ve always thought that Griffey as a coach would be very similar to Magic Johnson as a coach: “Okay, starting in right-center, you’re supposed to run down the line drive in left-center and then fire to second for the double play, like this… Okay, now you try.”

I love all the wild headlines & speculation stemming from a simple comment like:

“I have had some discussions with Ken Griffey’s agent, and we talked of some possibilities,” Zduriencik said, “but it was more inquiry than anything else. Nothing more than that.”

Nice DMZ…I hope it’s not Griffey out there…but really, I’m excited to see ANYBODY out there instead of Raul…

Like “go coach Griffey to play defense in left”? That’d be Lee Tinsley’s job, wouldn’t it?

Griffey could be a target for some coaching job in the organization.

Wabbles-

Not saying that The Kid won’t be back, but Z has stated that he has NOT made an offer to Griffey, but has only talked with his agent…so I think this official offer to a free-agent isn’t Griffey…

Yeah, if you only count the AL — Manny’s ahead of him too.
