Hiring Melvin could lead to Price

Of course, one of the names on Wade's list is Bob Melvin. We learn from Larry Stone of the Seattle Times that hiring Melvin could lead to landing one of the up-and-coming (one of the worst phrases in the English language) pitching coaches in Bryan Price.

Price, who is working with the Phillies' minor-league pitching prospects, is pimped by Stone as a future managerial candidate. But if the Astros want to go on a 2-for-1 move, they should hurry, because the Marlins have already called about making Price their pitching coach.
