Percy Might Return As An Angel Coach
Troy Percival has said he's interested in returning to the major leagues as a coach, and the Angels want him back, according to the Times.
"I'm going to try to get back in the game in some capacity, preferably at the big league level, next year," said Percival, whose comeback with the Detroit Tigers was cut short Feb. 26 by another elbow injury.That is just fantastic. Good luck, Percy."I definitely want to get into coaching and managing, and the Angels said there will be something available to me when I'm ready. They didn't say whether it would be in the front office, as a roving instructor or a coach, but they've been good to me my whole career."
Percival, who is tied for 10th on baseball's saves list with 324, hasn't announced his retirement. However, after sitting out the second half of 2005 because of a muscle tear in his elbow and abandoning his comeback this spring, he said he is "most likely" done.
"I'll let it rest again, but shoot, I let it rest for seven months, and when I threw my first bullpen [this spring] it was right back to where it was before," Percival said. "I know I can't throw anymore."
