I'm told Bobby Valentine may interview with #Marlins as early as tomorrow

 

Edwin Rodriguez wants the job full-time but #Marlins reportedly will offer Bobby Valentine 4-year deal tomorrow http://shar.es/mI6hx

I'll take Valentine (or anyone else) who can actually speak for 30 seconds without injecting the idiotic filler phrase "you know" once, never mind the 15 times usually heard, say, from our former fearless field-general, feckless Freddi.

 

In other words, his brain can actually keep up with his mouth.

We are seriously interviewing Bo Porter???

 

Well I guess we're interviewing him....based on reports, probably not very seriously, though.

 

"So, Bo, what's your view on the current season of 'The Bachelorette?' That Kasey was sure crazy, wasn't he? Who would you send home next? Everyone? Why is that not surprising."

What's Valentine's managerial style?

 

I think he's a bunt them over, move them over, station to station, stolen base kind of guy but I'm not sure. Anyone know for sure?

 

I don't think he'll be a good fit with Beinfest as I don't see Valentine being the puppet Beinfest wants. They'll clash just like Girardi clashed with Beinfest. If this happens it will not end well.

 

Not sure if it was mentioned by anyone but last week Dave Collins ran the closed door meeting after being swept by the Rangers. That should have being a sign that Fredi's days were numbered.

 

This is what I'd like to know.

 

Everyone here seems to want this guy so much, but do they really know enough about him?

 

Beinfest's failures going into 2010 (bad bullpen, Maybin and Miller not contributing, bad bench players) far outweigh the negative consequences of Gonzalez's in-game management.

 

I think Beinfest is an above average GM and should keep his job, but it amazes me that he escapes criticism from the camp that has been calling for Fredi's head for almost two years now.

 

This is how I feel. Beinfest gets a free pass constantly.

It seems to me the front office not only accepted their part in this season's failings, but admitted they were more at fault than even perhaps Fredi.

There are holes on this team, but lesser GMs would have a really bad team right now. Just look at the complete incompetence of the Pirates who for years traded people away and NEVER got anyone in return.

Fredi is gone and the FO is still there.

 

Anyway, I was referring to posters and the media. I wasn't referring to anyone else.

I heard from some bitter Mets fan (so take it with a grain of salt) that he was pretty much just a FO yes man. Which would make sense why Loria loves him so much.

If the front office accepted responsibility and even admitted that they were more at fault than Fredi how come Fredi got fired and everyone in the front office kept their jobs? Can someone explain this? If the team is underperforming wouldn't you remove the ones most at fault?

Former Texas Rangers and New York Mets manager Bobby Valentine has confirmed he will fly to Florida on Friday night to meet with Marlins executives, including owner Jeffrey Loria, and discuss the club's managerial job. A source close to the negotiations said that the Marlins are expected to offer Valentine a four-year contract

 

Can we just make him our manager already?

Because teams are never sparked by GMs and Presidents of Baseball Operations being fired, and people believe firing managers can do this.

It's a case of "oh no, things aren't going well, fetch the whipping boy!"

 

Actually the real reason why the execs aren't usually fired is that they are the ones who do the firing.

If you watch the press conference from June 23rd, you see in Beinfest he looks worried. I think he could be in more trouble than some surmise. Loria will be royally p.o.'d if at years end we are say 10-12 games below .500 (which is what I think will happen, Valentine or not), and his chopping block may have Beinfest's name written on it.

Because the front office felt Freddi was leaving at years end anyways. Freddi may not have really cared as much as he might have had Cox not said he was retiring. Cut him loose now, get your man that Loria wants in (its good to always please the owner) and CYA as much as possible before the end of the season.

Yes, we can. Organizations can go through the routine interview process alot quicker then one would think. If the FO has already decided on a candidate then it would only take 1 day of interviewing "other" candidates. It is a joke this so called process that organizations are required to go through to find a new coach.

Only if they hire a minority. At least publicly.

 

We won't have a new manager until AFTER the series in PR. Then things will be happening quickly. Including some player trades.

 

And if anyone wants this weeks lotto numbers, just give me a call.

BroncoBob is such a delight.

 

 

Can you point out where I said something wrong? Or are you saying a burst of reality sucks?

BroncoBob is such a delight.

 

:lol

He's such a delight he managed to destroy the AOL Marlins board a few years ago.

 

 

This must be Pollo. I see things haven't changed. When all else fails, take on the mindset of this boards bird-dude. Just lie.
