July 17, 200520 yr "Joe Girardi or Jim Fregosi take over if Jack is fired" --Gammons just now just some thought
July 17, 200520 yr Dont know much about eaither as being a manager. I would prefer a guy like Leyland who has already won and proven. Hopefully they can get him back
July 17, 200520 yr Gammons also said we're good enough to make playoffs but not if we wait a couple more weeks.......there's gonna be major shakeups here I have a feeling...
July 17, 200520 yr I hope McKeon gets canned along with Robinson. Sure, McKeon won the Marlins a world series, but that doesn't change the fact the Marlins are a team that's below .500 and shouldn't be. Now McKeon can retire or go to ESPN like the other sacked managers.
July 17, 200520 yr Fire Jack. Trade Lowell and AJ. Move Cabs to 3rd and Niner to LF. Get a replacement for AJ. Do it.
July 18, 200520 yr Gammons also said we're good enough to make playoffs but not if we wait a couple more weeks.......there's gonna be major shakeups here I have a feeling... 860852[/snapback] Exactly, the Marlins waited until the deadline last year, and fell short.

That's why there's gonna be some big stuff comin I think in the next day or two. I'm sure the whole front office is huddling right now.
July 18, 200520 yr Fire Jack. Trade Lowell and AJ. Move Cabs to 3rd and Niner to LF. Get a replacement for AJ. Do it. 860854[/snapback] Shut up! You don't trade Lowell and expect to be back on it. Trades are not always the answer. Stop asking for trades, please. You "trading" people are getting on my nerves already... :banghead
July 18, 200520 yr Is this an instance of Gammons just relating his opinion, or is he reporting sources?
July 18, 200520 yr Girardi would be an interesting choice. I remember for a short while he was a candidate for bench coach.
July 18, 200520 yr Fire Jack.? Trade Lowell and AJ.? Move Cabs to 3rd and Niner to LF.? Get a replacement for AJ.? Do it. 860854[/snapback] Shut up! You don't trade Lowell and expect to be back on it. Trades are not always the answer. Stop asking for trades, please. You "trading" people are getting on my nerves already... :banghead 860880[/snapback] Um, ok. This is baseball... the Marlins are trying to win the World Series. It's all business, baby. Let's do what we gotta do.
July 18, 200520 yr What about Jeff Conine as player/manager? :mischief 860849[/snapback] Manager Steve
July 18, 200520 yr Tony Pena? His style is very similar to that of Ozzie Guillen... :mischief 860893[/snapback] Let's get Tony Pena. I like him. I wish we could have gotten Ozzie.
July 18, 200520 yr What about Jeff Conine as player/manager? :mischief 860849[/snapback] I could live with that. :mischief

July 18, 200520 yr Dont know much about eaither as being a manager. I would prefer a guy like Leyland who has already won and proven. Hopefully they can get him back 860846[/snapback] Read a quote from Leyland last week; said he'd only be interested if a team is within an hour or so of this PA home.......
July 18, 200520 yr 860923[/snapback][/right] I saw that quote. He said "ideally," but not necessarily.
July 18, 200520 yr Tony Pena?? His style is very similar to that of Ozzie Guillen...? :mischief 860893[/snapback] Let's get Tony Pena. I like him. I wish we could have gotten Ozzie. 860903[/snapback] We had Ozzie, remember? He was there when he was our 3rd base coach. He just decided to accept and offer from the White Sox right after 2003...
