Heyman On Rangers, Mesoraco, Marlins

Jon Heyman breaks down the likely playoff teams at SI.com, where he also passes along some notes and rumors. The latest:

• The Rangers tried ‘extremely hard’ to obtain Carlos Beltran from the Mets before the Giants traded for him in July.
• Devin Mesoraco may be more ‘universally beloved’ by scouts than any other September call-up.
• Davey Johnson can manage the Nationals again in 2012 if he wants to, but Jack McKeon of the Marlins may not be so lucky.
• Heyman hears that the Marlins and McKeon have decided someone else will manage in 2012, though McKeon can remain with the organization in some capacity forever (Twitter links). However, McKeon told Jim Bowden of MLB Network Radio that that's not the case (Twitter link).
• White Sox chairman Jerry Reinsdorf wants to keep manager Ozzie Guillen and GM Kenny Williams together at this point.
