Where Will They End Up?
By Disco Stu - Editor in Chief : 08.01.01

Good Question

When baseball players retire, they normally go back home, start their own business, and live quietly in obscurity.  That's what happens to the not-so-successful players.  For the most part, however, good players remain in the game in some way.

A great deal end up as broadcasters, doing color commentary for baseball games.  Others, end up working for management as scouts or public relations people.  Even more good players end up as coaches or managers for either minor league teams or major league teams.

There's no way of telling where players today will end up, but there's a good chance they'll remain in baseball.  Here are my predictions;  I bet that 50% of these guys will end up in at least one of their predicted jobs:
