    They quit on him after Josh Johnson got hurt. Incredible how far they have fallen.

    Why would he quit? Was he going to be.fired?

    Marlins should have never hired him. He didn't ever seem like manager material. Always seemed in over his head.

    I'm guessing yes he was going to be fired with his 1-18 record in June.

    I always wondered how he managed/coached. I couldnt ever understand a word he was saying

    When Jeffrey Loria is your owner you're always about to be fired. It's just a matter of how long you can hang on.

    Steinbrenner attitude/patience with a Nutting/Dolan spending plan... no one in their right mind should ever manage there, lol.

    Loria's solution appears to be bringing back Jack McKeon, who is 80 years old now.
