And what the hell is his first name? Does anyone know? Lackey: No, you're the one who wrote down to skip him. I'm not sure what his first name is. Maybe he just goes by Schumaker like certain celebrities who just have the single name. Ng: Hmm. Well he DOES sound arrogant then. It's probably best we did skip him. Has anyone heard my phone ring yet? When did we hire John Lackey?

J/K...dear god J/K. Honestly wouldn't be opposed to a season of McKeon with a "coach in waiting" for the next year, just to get things on track and show a younger guy how its done. Maybe a McKeon / Lowell or McKeon / Conine one two punch. Nah let's get someone new, it'll be fine.

October 24, 20223 yr Not really sure how the Rangers convinced Bruce Bochy to come out of retirement but thats going to be one of the best hires of the winter. Lets see if the Marlins can be top 5 in terms of best managerial hires of the offseason.

October 24, 20223 yr The mystery person is probably someone who called Kim but she missed the call and so she has a missed call from a number she doesn't recognize therefore it's a mystery person.

October 24, 20223 yr Hmm, we've all agreed that Kim had the qualifications for the job but was this a bad move by Jeter to not at least try and interview others? Hate to say it but have to say it.. makes me wonder how much Jeter valued, gasp, "the optics" of hiring Kim.

He knew her well from the Yankee days and he clearly wanted to hire her. No point in doing any fake interviews with other candidates if there was only one person he wanted to hire.

At least make us think she beat out other candidates. lol

I accept this because I hate all the fake interviews everyone seems to do but then the question is did Kim get the job because she was the best possible candidate or because Jeter just wanted his personal selection? When u don't interview others then it obviously becomes a personal pick. And if Kim nailed the role from the beginning great but the way its gone now we all gotta wonder if not interviewing others was a mistake.

Agreed, I don't want him either. 44 minutes ago, SilverBullet said: I don't have a problem with casting a wide net in the search, especially since it seems as though the process could be wrapped up immediately following the world series. That's what that Eddy guy doesn't realize - no moves can be made until after the WS anyway, so it's actually GOOD that they seem to be so far along already, so that it CAN be done immediately after the WS, so that they can get to the other stuff right away. 41 minutes ago, SilverBullet said: Hmm, we've all agreed that Kim had the qualifications for the job but was this a bad move by Jeter to not at least try and interview others?

Yeah, I think there should've been other candidates, even if you have someone in mind, you never know when another candidate is going to blow you away.

October 24, 20223 yr Hey, with the Astros now in the World Series, and with the Marlins not able to sign Espada until after the WS ends, do you guys think that all these additional names popping up that the Marlins are interviewing are just like being used to buy time before they announce that they signed Espada?
