He managed the San Francisco Giants for exactly one year. He was born in Alabama which seems to fit, he attended Southern Mississippi, and his record of 56-88 figures out to .389. That was enough for the Giants not to renew his contract. Je was a good baseball player, spending 13 years with the Giants. I watched him from time to time as a baseball fan in the 60's. No clue what he's doing now. Jim Davenport would seem to fit that bill. He managed the San Francisco Giants for exactly one year.

Andy Tracy, who is 35, is first-baseman for the Lehigh Valley IronPigs, the Philadelphia Phillies' AAA affiliate in the International League. And at that age he was good enough at his job this year that he's with the Phillies right now during their pennant drive! Absolutely.

For example, the low rookie level has restrictions on the number of players allowed over the age of 21. I think it's only something like 1 or 2. This is why you hear stories of players lying about their age....it allows them to hang around and play longer. Actually, some of the lower level leagues do have age restrictions.

An independent team will take anybody, you can be a 50 year old pitcher, and if you can throw 90mph, and you want to live your life on the measly wages and spend 32 hours at a time on a bus for road games, sure, they'll take you. Live your dream. A real minor league club, that is an affiliate of a major league club, don't have open tryouts. They are paid players of the minor league lever.

Clubs have had open tryouts for their minor league farm teams. A pitcher named Jim Morris went to a Tampa Bay Devil Rays tryout at age 35 and eventually worked his way up to the majors by the end of the season. Of course that kind of shot is a 1 in a million thing, but you never know. No there aren’t. Clubs have had open tryouts for their minor league farm teams.

Game 2: TBA vs. Phil Hughes The Orioles win. Yeah I'm ranking a guy that is "TBA" to be better than Hughes. Game 3: Jake Arrieta vs. Ivan Nova The Yankees will demolish Arrieta. Nova will also put up a respectable battle. Overall, the Yankees take 2 out of the 3. That's just my guess. Game 1: Chris Tillman vs. AJ Burnett
