Effective following Wednesday's game

:notworthy

Does that mean he won't go back to what he did before he was brought back as manager?

“I hate it but I’ll still be on call,� he said.

“I hope to continue to do some kind of work for them if they will have me."

Asked if he will manage again some day, McKeon said: “Hopefully in 2017 or ’18 I’ll be back. That would be big motivation, to beat Connie (Mack). I’m number two. Hopefully the good lord gives me enough good healthy so I can last another seven or eight more years so I can do it again.’’

NNNNnnnnnnoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo Say it ain't so, Jack :crying

Good luck Jack and thanks for all you have done for the Marlins. This season was rough for you, but you did the best you could with what was given to you.

 

I imagine he goes right back to being a "special asst. to the President of the Marlins" type deal. He is tied to this franchise and I doubt he'd ever manage anywhere else.

I would hope he can come back in 18-19, even as a publicity stunt. It would be great if he had that kind of vitality.

The Legend of Trader Jack.

Promote him to GM, he did pretty good putting together the Padres in the 1980's, yeah that was thirty years ago, waaaayyy before Moneyball

He'll always be around somewhere.

good bye jack will miss you :exercise

Thanks for the memories, Trader.

You'll always have a special place in the hearts of marlin's fans Trader Jack.

... and thanks for Episode II.

 

I couldn't have stomached this season without your celebrity cameo.

I know he probably enjoyed it, but Jack deserved better than the team that was out there this year (so did Edwin, for that matter).

It what ended up being a lost season Jack was the one saving grace. We'll miss you, again.
