Rumors for a Tuesday

According to the Boston Herald, the Red Sox are no longer in the running for Mark Buehrle. He's likely headed to the NL.

The Denver Post reports that Don Baylor is very much interested in becoming the Orioles skipper. The Post also says the Rockies have a strong interest in Octavio Dotel.

As reported by the Chicago Tribune, Cubs President John McDonough said a committee of Tribune Co. executives is in charge of the purse strings when it comes to whether to resume contract negotiations with Carlos Zambrano. Talks ended Opening Day when the company announced it planned to sell the Cubs.

"There's a group of people involved, and I think we're seeing the real Carlos Zambrano," McDonough said. "He got off to a rough start, and I think any team would love to have him."

Not a rumor, but a request - Mike Mussina sure would look good in a Braves or Phillies uniform (and out my pinstripes).
