Yeah, but Loria will fire him before four years run out. Firing managers proves that he’s a man!

I fired a manager…LIKE A BOSS.

Good,maybe the Marlins can keep a damn manager 5 years or more instead of firing them all the time.Haha doubt it though.

my favorite quote of loria on firing Gonzalez, “we felt we could make the team better, and YOU KNOW HOW I FEEL ABOUT WINNING”priceless. we know exactly how you feel loria, but some of the stuff i shouldn’t post on a public site.

Exactly. He does everything he can to satisfy his burning desire to win, including handing out quality contracts and spending money to lure players there. Oh wait…

i can’t see Bobby V kissing Hanley Ramirez’s arse and that had to get brought up between Bobby V and loria. is Bobby v being brought in to whip Ramirez into shape or something? to get the Manny Ramirez crybaby out of him??

Bobby V. is perfect for the cash-strapped Marlins. He got the 2000 Mets to the World Series with a team that had no business in the World Series. He will be the perfect manager to manage this team that can not afford to hold superstars. He will get the most out of his players, thats for sure.

I completely agree, he is one of, if not the best manager in the game in the last 15-20 years. The only World Series caliber players on that 2000 squad were really Mike Piazza, Al Leiter, and Rey Ordonez. Don’t get me wrong, I still am a fan of Mike Hampton, Jay Payton, Edgardo Alfonso, etc., but Valentine took an average team there and got them to a WS.

Bobby v is awesome im surprised it took him this long to get a job. But now when he benches Han-Ram for not hustling Hanley simply cannot say anything. This is a good move, smart manager with a good young team, now they need new ownership(hopefully the mlb forces the issue) so that they can spend and not get forced to pay one of the few 30 home run threats on their team like this past season with ugla
