I would say Gary Cederstrom, Ed Rapuano, Jim Joyce, Mike Winters, and Tim Tschedia are probably the front runners for Joe's vaccant CC spot. A lot of the decision will be based on playoff assignments and past evaluations.
All of these guys have worked a World Series or LCS multiple times throughout their careers, so it is a tough decision.

Just MHO, FWIW, but I have seen Mike Winters work a few times in the past two years and have been VERY impressed with how he goes about things on the field. Just my very naive opinion on how a crew chief should be.
