It's too bad Luzinski is retiring; I think he could have made a
valuable contribution to almost any AL team.  In fact, he had offers
from two teams which he turned down to spend more time with his
daughters (he lives in a Philadelphia suburb in South Jersey).

He's well-set for life, as he reportedly earns $200,000 a year on his
investments.   The High School he'll be coaching is in Delmar, and
he'll be in charge of the freshman team.  Rumor has it that every male
freshman at Delmar will be going out for baseball this year...

Much criticism was levied at Luzinski during his career (some fair
(fielding) and some unfair (weight)), but no sports writer has ever
suggested that he was rude, or arrogant, or in anyway suffered from
the inflated ego often besetting other athletic stars.  By all
accounts, he was ever the gentleman and all-around nice guy, and I
wish him luck in the future.
