Watch for it.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flag Man Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 Guys....why do some people say that the season in shot, when we are in reach of the wildcard. I am pretty sure that a competative guy like Loria won't just let the season go to waste. I really do think we need a change at manager. Jack gives the players way too much liberty and I think he has lost a lot of control in the clubhouse. There needs to be a little more discipline. THEY NEED A NEW MANAGER! The last time we switched a manager in the middle of the season, look where it got us. BE PATIENT! SOMETHING WILL GET DONE! but please stop mentioning that the season has gone to s***! If we were 10GB out of the race, then worry! I think that Grady Little, Freddie Gonzalez would not be a bad option to pick up! 861558[/snapback] In the past month whenever I suggested Jack should be replaced I got slammed and told to "Shut Up." Many herein are now saying the same thing. Interested to see if they are also told to Shut Up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonDigital Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 until something is done everyone on this board will be pessimistic and anal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OmarUM483 Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 if we get rid off McKeon, the only coach I think will make a good fit is..... TONY PENA In'03, aside from Trader Jack, Pena was the best skipper. Pena did a phenomenol job with the Royals with a very mediocre team. I think he is still relatively young, brings in a new perspective and philosophy, will mesh well with players, and is hispanic (which I think will enable him to better relate to the players)...

WildMarlinMan2003 Posted July 18, 2005 Author Share Posted July 18, 2005 Fredi Gonzalez is young and he communicates with players very well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marlins2003 Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 I'm not in the "fire Jack" camp but if it comes to pass, Fredi Gonzalez would be my first choice, and the longshot, Bobby Valentine, would certainly be on my list. Bobby does have an out in his three year contract in Japan that he can step aside if offered an MLB managerial contract, although he says he loves it in Japan.

DogFish Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 I would expect something to happen this week. Tony Pena would be the choice I would go with. McKeon has said that he is accountable and will take the fall. The time has come. Need fresh blood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it comes to be, then I would love to see Tony Pe?a get a shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
