Edwin Rodriguez To Manage Marlins For 2010

By Ben Nicholson-Smith | June 29, 2010 at 6:10pm CDT

Edwin Rodriguez will remain the Marlins' interim manager for the remainder of the 2010 season, according to ESPN.com's Buster Olney. Clark Spencer of the Miami Herald reports (via Twitter) that Marlins owner Jeffrey Loria told the team the news today. The Marlins, who have been linked to Bobby Valentine ever since they fired manager Fredi Gonzalez, will reevaluate their long-term options after the season.

The Marlins were reportedly considering D'Backs third base coach Bo Porter for the opening after philosophical differences between Valentine and the team became apparent. Valentine was considered the favorite for the job and appeared to have won it as recently as a few days ago.

Rodriguez, who had been managing the Marlins' Triple A affiliate, has two wins since taking over, including one last night in his native Puerto Rico. Overall, the Marlins are 2-4 under Rodriguez.

    “after philosophical differences between Valentine and the team became apparent.” so in other words valentine thought it was right to pay more than one player…and to not be forced by the league to pay arbitration raises …and the marlins front office thought that paying players was a thing they could CHOOSE to do not something they had to do.

    stupidest move ever by the Marlins. Fredi Gonzalez is one of the best managers in the game and he has only managed for less than 4 years! cant wait to see him as the manager of the Atlanta Braves in 2011. thank you Loria!

    Valentine doesn’t seem too respectful of the Marlins as of tonight, faking tears on BT about the decision.

    Not that I’d have much respect for them either.

    Well now Loria has a bargain basement manager to go with his bargain basement team. Wonder what happened to “we are committed to winning”? Oh well, one less team in the playoff race in the east.

    Edwin Rodriguez is like another Fredi Gonzalez. He has barely made any lineup changes and he makes the same exact double switches. As far as I can tell it looks like he manages by the book. T Why on earth is Stanton batting 8th in the lineup? What is that going to do for his confidence? You need to have him hitting 5th or 6th in the lineup, so he … See Morecan see better pitches and also so he can have more opportunities to drive in runs! By looking at their lineup and by evaluating the way he manages the game; I really don’t see any differences whatsoever. Philosophically and fundamentally he is another Fredi Gonzalez. Great job firing your manager without a plan in place. Absolutely brilliant! This franchise is so dysfunctional right now it is unbelievable, The reason why they are so dysfunctional is because the owner decides to get involved in the baseball operations aspect of te team without being willing to spend money to improve the baseball operation aspect. Does that make any sense? You don’t fire a manager without a plan in place to upgrade the managerial position. I hated Gonzalez but what is the point of firing him to hire a manager with no Major League experience whatsoever! I mean why didn’t they just hire one of us? Absolutely ridiculous!

    How about reevaluating your long term options with Jeffrey Loria as the owner! Major League Baseball needs to step in and get rid of his ownership. How could Loria and Valentine have philosophical differences. What does Loria know about the games of baseball and what it takes to be an effective manager? Stay out of the baseball operations Loria! You have one of the best General Manager’s in the game, let him do his thing. Therefore, you can go back to dealing art.
