Quick Hits: Marlins, Buehrle, Draft

By Ben Nicholson-Smith | September 26, 2011 at 6:05pm CDT

On this date in 1998, 39-year-old Rickey Henderson stole his 66th base of the season, Mark McGwire hit home runs #67 and 68 and Dennis Eckersley appeared in the final game of his career, breaking Hoyt Wilhelm's all-time appearances record by pitching in his 1071st game. Will today be as eventful? It's doubtful, but there are still 15 games on the schedule. Here are today's links…

  • MLBTR will be holding a free agent prediction contest shortly after the World Series ends.  If your company would like to contribute a cool prize or prizes for the contest, please email mlbtrsponsors@gmail.com. There will be one MLBTR post outlining the prizes, for which each bullet will be for a sponsor and will include one link to a website related to the product contributed. 
  • Bo Porter, the Nationals' third base coach, interviewed for the Marlins' managerial opening today, according to Ben Goessling of MASNsports.com (Twitter link). Porter, who interviewed for the opening last year, has another shot at the job, since Jack McKeon is set to retire.
  • Mark Buehrle told Mark Gonzales of the Chicago Tribune that the White Sox haven't discussed a new deal with his agent (Twitter links). The left-hander, who hits free agency after the season, confirmed that he's looking to play for a few more years.
  • Though it doesn't appear that commissioner Bud Selig will get draft slotting in the upcoming collective bargaining agreement, it does seem likely that the signing deadline (currently August 15th) will be moved up in 2012, according to Jim Callis of Baseball America. Callis' sources say an earlier signing deadline is a "slam dunk."

      Wilhelm would have been the classic attack of the old people. If am not mistaken, he is the oldest player in MLB history to actually “play” the game, not a publicity stunt like ChiSox owner Bill Veeck did running coach Minnie Minosa out back in the 70’s for a few AB’s and Satchell Paige getting an inning at the age of like 68 back in the 60’s.

    Give Bo Porter a shot in D.C. in 2012!

    I hope Buehrle and the White Sox can come to a reasonable extension. He’d be a great 3rd starter for the next couple of seasons.

    Looks like Porter didn’t get the Marlins job, that gig appears to belong to Ozzie Guillen.
