It will be a sad day when Marsh retires. He does such a good job on the field with balls and strikes, mechanics, and handling situations on the field when they come up.

While nothing is by any means set, when I had lunch with a couple MLB guys over the summer when they were in town for a Mets series, there was talk of finding ways to hire new guys, including giving the plate guy the next day off and forming an extra crew. These guys didn't say anything about Drake/Hoye/Guccione, but that might not be something they're kept apprised of anyway.

All I know is I'd be frustrated if I was these guys and hadn't gotten a full-time job yet, but I'm sure they'll stick around as long as they can.

This post might set the record for most awfully constructed phrase in the English language.

Ever.

Seriously, drop it. It is December, those things are announced just prior to Spring Training.

See you in a week when you ask again.

New guy
Happy Holidays. I am new to this site. I am a high school and college umpire in the Iowa, Illinois, Wisconsin area and a 25 year police officer. Larry Young spoke to our award ceremony last night. Larry would not take a fee but did accept our donation for UmpsCare, the major league umpires charity. I asked him if I could ask some questions and post them on this site. He said absolutely and sends his" best wishes to fellow umpires."
Bruce Froemming--Bruce is retired as of 1/1/08 and will then be working somewhere in baseball, but not as an umpire supervisor
Randy Marsh-- Randy is not retiring next year
Guccione and Drake--Had many good things to say about both. Both are very much in the mix , but face the problem of no openings. Larry predicts both will eventually have long careers in the major leagues.
Larry Young--Was injured in a game in July in Chicago. Three doctors have told him he will not umpire again. Is still on the staff, but is weighing his options which may include a supervisory position with MLB. Wants to work with minor, major , and internationl umpires. Has been umpiring since the age of 13, but has no regrets, saying, "If this is indeed the end of my umpiring career, I was fortunate to umpire at the MLB level for 24 years possessing average ability. I would now like to help some younger MLB umpires reach their dream of working a world series, and help some Milb umpires reach their dream of working in the big leagues."
He received a standing ovation from our members
