Soderbergh might have another baseball movie up his sleeve. Guesses on which player it will be about? (the answer is unknown currently)

Posted by Dano (aka dano) Oct 13 '09, 14:32

...Soderbergh now says he has another (sorta) baseball project that he's about to pitch to Major League Baseball. �Yeah, I have another idea for a baseball movie that actually doesn�t have any baseball in it,� he told MTV. "I am going to see MLB when I�m in New York to talk to them about it.�

Apparently the film will focus on a real life baseball player (apparently a famous one, but he won't say who) and his life past the baseball diamond. �It�s a true story. I don�t want to jinx it, because it would involve life rights. I want to talk to [MLB] and say �If I did a movie on this subject, would you be cool with this? What kind of cooperation can I expect?��

Guesses?

My guess is Lenny Dykstra
