Jeffrey Loria reportedly got upset with Dan Jennings for playing Marcell Ozuna

Six months ago Dan Jennings was the Miami Marlins’ GM, five months ago he was the team’s manager, and today he is neither.

The Marlins on Thursday fired Jennings as the team’s GM. He had resumed the role after serving as the team’s interim manager for most of the season (he replaced Mike Redmond in mid-May).

What led the Marlins to dump him as their GM, too? Apparently things soured between him and team owner Jeffrey Loria when Jennings played Marcell Ozuna.

Dan Jennings and #Marlins owner Jeffrey Loria's relationship soured when Jennings played rookie Marcell Ozuna, going against Loria's wishes.
