Not sure why ESPN keeps thinking Francona could join the Cubs as a potential manager when he had a lot of problems dealing with Theo last season alone. Supposedly those two were bickering and arguing enough to have management get involved to end the small "feud."


MLB released the list of the 10 candidates on the Veterans Committee ballot for this year's Hall of Fame voting:
Quote:
• Gil Hodges
• Ron Santo
• Jim Kaat
• Luis Tiant
• Ken Boyer
• Minnie Minoso
• Tony Olivo
• Allie Reynolds
• Buzzie Bavasi
• Charlie Finley
The 2013 Hall of Fame ballot is going to be strong on the managers side because Bobby Cox, Tony La Russa, and Joe Torre will all be available as choices.
