Jennings is likely headed back to the front office. But the transition back might not be that smooth.
Jennings was asked to move from the front office into the dugout after Mike Redmond was dismissed, and according to Barry Jackson of The Miami Herald, Loria has been listening to assistant General Manager Mike Berger and director of professional scouting Jeff McAvoy since Jennings became Miami's manager.
Although because of Jennings' relationship with the owner he felt he might not have had a choice, Jennings' absence from the front office has created an unfavorable situation for when he returns.
