History Says Marlins Skipper Could Be Ousted Anytime
Once upon a time, there was a baseball team that entered a season with some modest expectations due to an impressive off-season by their standards and a promising home-grown core of remarkable talent. They flirted with .500 for the first month of the season, before slumping to a 16-22 record after the first couple weeks of May.
As a result, the manager that had inspired so much cautious confidence after a surprisingly successful campaign the previous season was fired. What followed was a magical wonderland of a season that was worthy of the most fantastical of story books.
