IL news for rat bastards

The Devil Rays released their 1B guy, Kevin Witt, who played mostly for the AAA Durham Bulls and did a pretty awesome job there (he won the International League MVP). He sucked in Tampa Bay, though, so see ya.

K-Dub led the IL in HRs (36).

Also, IL manager o' the year John Russell is being considered to replace Buck Showalter in TX. Russell was the Scranton-Wilkes Barre manager. SWB won their division in '06. This was also Pawtucket's division. The PawSox finished 16 games out. OUCH!

In retrospect, I should have focused more on Craig Breslow. What a nice job he did.
