Former San Diego general manager Kevin Towers is planning to attend the winter meetings in Indianapolis this week. He won't be on official business, but he could finalize his next job.
Towers has been approached by several teams to be a special assistant to the general manager.
He is leaning toward accepting an offer from Yankees GM Brian Cashman, a close friend of Towers, according to sources close to the situation.
The Yankees would present Towers with two new views on baseball — working for a team that has money to spend (he has spent his time with the Padres and Pirates) and getting a feel for life in the American League. -- Tracy Ringolsby
Any good baseball mind is a nice addition to any organization.
