The Miami Marlins, as many in the industry believed, will need a new manager for the 2023 season.
Don Mattingly will indeed leave Miami at the end of the season.
According to what circulates, it is indeed a mutual decision between the organization, which will not say no to a change of voice, and the manager, who feels that he has toured the garden with the Marlins.
Mattingly seemed, this year, to be on a hot seat.
I wonder what impact that will have on a guy like Charles Leblanc. It is to be hoped that the next manager will like it.
But obviously, for the moment, we do not know who will take the helm of the club. If you want my opinion, I would tell you, according to my personal feeling, to watch Luis Rojas…
Mattingly is not going straight to retirement. He may never manage again, but it’s also likely that the former Yankees star is just taking a break to come back better afterwards.
At 61 and having managed non-stop since 2011 (in Los Angeles and Miami), he does well to take his time. If the right opportunity arises, he can seize it.
