Replace Comish?
Question:Who will replace Bud Selig as comisioner when he steps down?
Answers:
Doing a brief information check I wasn't able to glean any official information on the rules of changing a commissioner.
I am reasonably confident that the owners and the players association both have to come to an agreement on any replacements that are to be named.

Hopefully either George Will or Bob Costas. They're both well-known, obviously media-friendly and media savvy, and not only baseball fans but extremely knowledgeable baseball fans. Either one would be absolutely as good a choice as was Bart Giamatti. (And that, of course, is yet another reason for Pete Rose to NEVER be in the HOF.)Unfortunately, it's more likely to be Reinsdorf.
Either way, it can't possibly too soon.

It might be too early to tell. If he does leave after 2009, it depends on whether the owners will vote on anyone who is not an owner or very close to Selig. Bob Watson may be too old and not have enough credibility.Is the Yankee game going to be rained out in NY tomorrow?
Anybody that is not buddy buddy with the owners as Bud Selig is as he was once an owner to. Get somebody in who will ban any player who was involved with steroids for life and start caring about the fan again! Ticket prices are to high and everything inside the stadium is to high! You can hardly take a family to a ball game anymore! Baseball also needs a salary cap as only the New York Yankees and the Boston Red Sox can afford the talent year in and year out! No wonder they have such a great rivalry! It's because of this!More Questions & Answers...
