It's official. Girardi is the new Yankees manager. He'll be wearing #27, a number that's been often used by minor leaguers up for a cup of coffee (most recently, Darrel Rasner).

It's official, part 2: Torre is the Dodgers' new manager. Not sure what number he'll wear, but #6 is currently being worn by rookie Tony Abreu. I'm sure if Torre wants it, the kid will give it up.

Creepy...Do Dodgers aim to be Yankees West?

And look, the Toledo Mud Hens have offered A-Rod a contract.
