Odds & Ends: Beeston, St. Claire, Bay

Links for Tuesday...

• The Blue Jays announced today that Paul Beeston will remain the team's president and CEO on a three-year deal. 
• The Cub Reporter has three potential offseason targets: Rajai Davis, Jeremy Hermida, and Kelly Johnson.
• Kerry Wood replied, "Never say never" when asked on ESPN 1000's Waddle and Silvy show about returning to the Cubs after his Indians contract expires.  I was surprised the Cubs didn't offer Wood arbitration a year ago.
• The Marlins hired Randy St. Claire as their new pitching coach; he received a two-year deal according to Barry Jackson and Clark Spencer of the Miami Herald.  St. Claire was fired by the Nationals in June.
• Jason Bay's agent Joe Urbon unconvincingly defended his client's defense in this article from WEEI's Rob Bradford.  Curt Schilling weighed in on Bay and J.D. Drew here.
• Mike DiGiovanna of the L.A. Times discusses the Angels' key free agents.  He sees John Lackey getting at least five years and $100MM, and Chone Figgins landing around five years, $50MM.  He adds that reliever Darren Oliver is again considering retirement.
• The Cubs sale to the Ricketts family is complete, says Paul Sullivan of the Chicago Tribune.
