• it should come as no surprise that Texas' front office is split into factions, with GM Jon Daniels said to favor bench coach Don Wakamatsu and senior adviser John Hart pushing for former Yankees Triple-A manager Trey Hillman, currently managing the Nippon Ham Fighters in the Japanese World Series.

• The manager selection there will indicate how much confidence Hicks really has in his 27-year-old GM.'
