Torre to take helm in LA?
Please, Lord. I need this. New York Post:
October 29, 2007 -- If divorce proceedings between Grady Little and the Dodgers go the distance, as many expect, The Post has learned Joe Torre has been targeted as the manager to heal a fractured Los Angeles clubhouse.
According to two people with knowledge of the Dodgers' universe, the club and Little are talking about a buyout that would leave the manager's office in Chavez Ravine vacant for Torre to inherit.
Torre, who wants to manage again, is interested in talking to the Dodgers if the job becomes available.

A-rod too, ya think?
Possible. They're in dire need of a power-hitting third baseman. Nomar's a well-liked player, but he's injury prone and hit only seven homers this last year--and only one of those came in the first half of the season.
Thing is, though, A-Rod's likely going to be looking for $40 million per season. That's a hefty price tag. That, and the organization hates Scott Boras after he screwed them with J.D. Drew last offseason.
But anyway, I can only deal with one rumor at a time here. Torre's one thing, but I'm probably deluding myself if I think that they'll end up with both.
