Let the Offseason Begin!

Congratulations to the Chicago White Sox for clinching their first championship since the days of Shoeless Joe Jackson. When the final out was recorded last night, the offseason will now begin in earnest.

The Bucs have some work to do this offseason. There will be some big decisions to make. Youth has been served and it will be interesting to see whose stock will rise and fall through their performance in the Winter Leagues. Some veterans will likely be sent packing, most notably potential arbritration casualties Kip Wells and Craig Wilson. I'm sure there will be no lack of things to talk about.

I've been somewhat lax on my commentary of late (as I have been most of the season). I started a post on the Tracy hiring several times in the last couple of weeks, but scrapped 'em all. I hope to get my act together and post some thoughts on it in the coming weeks.
