Bad Idea Department
There was a point this off-season where I thought about trying to get in touch with Roger (Clemens), maybe a couple of weeks ago, to see what he did throughout his career, especially as he started to get a little bit older just to get himself back in spring-training shape and throwing shape.

Leyland on Turner
"I would say it would be a real, real longshot that he would break with the club out of spring training, although there are some people that think at some point during the season, a possibility. It's still probably a bit of a longshot, but a possibility."

Granderson & Durham
This Toledo Blade article from last April quotes Granderson on his relationship with Leon Durham:
The tutelage with the Mud Hens helped Granderson, especially from hitting coach Leon “Bull” Durham.
“It took me a little bit of time to understand what [Bull] was trying to say because my approach to hitting was different,” Granderson said. “Then I started to see results, and I still work with [Bull] every spring training and even talk to him during the seasons.”
So, for Granderson, at least, consulting with Durham during the season was not a new thing, and not necessarily reflecting any diaffection with the Tigers' hitting coach.
