Leading questions addressed
There was no bigger name than Joe Torre, who rejected the Yankees' offer of a pay cut, leaving the door ajar for Torre protégé Don Mattingly or Joe Girardi. Torre is a free agent, but for the time being there's no place to go. You can bet he'll be in the mix should things fall through with the Dodgers or Mets, or perhaps be the replacement in Atlanta when Bobby Cox retires after next season. The Yankees have groomed Mattingly as Torre's replacement for a few years. They must have believed he was ready to take the reins or they wouldn't have made Torre an offer they knew he would refuse. It'll be awfully hard to bypass the popular Mattingly. Those who watch the Yankees say Mattingly still gets the biggest ovations of any Yankee past - and sometimes present - when he's introduced.

Trembley was a minor league manager in 2005, when Rafael Palmeiro was suspended for receiving a positive test for steroids in August. Palmeiro contended he never intentionally used steroids, and has suggested the result might have come from tainted shots of B12 received from Tejada. The Mitchell Report painted a disturbing picture of the Baltimore clubhouse at the time, combining Bigbie's interview with an earlier report from the House Committee on Government Reform in which Tejada said he gave vitamin B12 shots to three teammates, Palmeiro and "Players A and B." According to the Mitchell Report, Bigbie "confirmed that he observed Tejada injecting himself with vitamin B12 in the clubhouse restroom.
