( ARE there any Pirate fans?) > Yeah, there are a few of us. I don't mind seeing a new guy managing. Leyland is highly thought of by some baseball folks, and I'm ready for some new faces around here. He and Schueler (sp?) are making a special project of Jose Deleon; there are rumors that he will be converted to short relief. The Bucs aren't going to contend next year, but it's going to be alot more fun watching guys like Orsulak, Brown, and Khalifa that it has been watching Hendrick and Kemp. The new management has vowed not to try any quick fixes, but to rebuild slowly. I pretty much agree with this, and am looking forward to watching the young guys start to develop. If you haven't read it yet, go get a copy of "Dollar Sign on the Muscle." Books are a very important way of getting through the winter. -- ARPA: David.Nichols@h.cs.cmu.edu UUCP: {seismo,decvax,allegra}!rochester!cmu-cs-pt!cmu-cs-h!nichols
