Yes, but the Marlins STILL finished under .500!

I wish Joe the best of luck. At another team, next year. For now, he is in league with satan... ;-)

Good luck to Joe Girardi as manager of the Yankees.

He's going to need it!

Sounds like a good guy. My personal opinion I don’t know why anyone would work for Stienbrenner.

Thank God the Reds passed on him. Horrible handler of the pitchign staff. Friend who is a fan of the marlins was in agony through out his tenure at the marlins because he was clueless as to how to handle the pitchers.

The new Joe will be a winner for the Yanks.

I happen to know Joe Girardi, not real well, but we’re more than just acquaintances. He is a gem of a human being, with a delightful family (two years ago when his son was five, the boy could field and hit better than most twelve year olds), and a degree of intelligence that’s truly impressive.

He’ll make a fantastic manager for the Yankees, as long as he learns a little bit about the care and feeding of upper management, which was his only weak spot with the Marlins.

All is well in Yankeeland. I don’t know why fans are so glum! The most overrated manager in baseball history, St. Torre, is finally gone. And the black hole of egos, The Lightning Rod, is gone too. Good riddance to both! Time for a passionate tough-ass like Girardi to shake things up in the clubhouse. I think they should also bring Paul O’Neill in as bench coach.
