Shumaker is Skip Schumaker, currently managing the Marlins but a lame duck right now who seems to be on the outs in MIA. He has a connection back to TLR and has already been mentioned as a leader for the full time job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wickel Posted August 8, 2024 Share Posted August 8, 2024 Now the focus and pressure is on Getz. There are some talented and available ex-managers out there--Mattingly, Maddon or even Roberts from the Dodgers (if they don't win the Series). How about giving Ozzie another shot or see what A.J. has? But if Getz and Reinsdorf are adamant about going with another bench coach, make sure he comes from a winning organization! Let's see what happens. Let's turn this baby around, folks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Allen Posted August 8, 2024 Share Posted August 8, 2024 There really is no reason they didn't do this sooner. The rest of the season is all about not setting an MLB record for ineptitude. They can win the rest of their games, they can lose the rest of their games, they will be in the same draft position. No one will buy if Gavin Sheets gets hot, that he's a building block. Play the kids, they will be better away from this loser. Hopefully better enough to avoid the record. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
