If the Tigers lose the next three at Oakland, Leyland WILL NOT manage the Tigers as long as he wants. He will be gone.

I’m assuming out of loyalty to Leyland.

Leyland can manage the Tigers as long as he wants. Period.

Without a time tested option out there, Jimmy’s job appears to be safe.

If there is someone out there that you have your eye on, and he becomes available this offseason, they may want to sign him up (in some capacity, at least) to get him in the fold, rather than let him get away to some other team.
