And meet your 2011 Atlanta Braves manager. I want some of what FLA's front office is smoking.

What would you do with it? :D

Bobby V is next

The Marlins sure do seem to enjoy playing manager roulette.

I wonder how much of his firing was due to the Ramirez situation earlier this season?

I agree there's a good chance he's manager in Atlanta next year. We'll know soon b/c if so he'll be brought in as a special advisor this year.

Oh yeah. Is that when Fredi took the pacifier out of Hanley's mouth and made him sit in timeout?

Man, I respect Fredi Gonzalez as a MLB manager for that. If that played a major part in his dismissal, then shame on the bafoons running the Marlins baseball club.

Nah, he was on the hot seat prior, this was telegraphed before the incident.
