Don Mattingly has officially signed a four-year deal with
the Miami Marlins to be their new manager for the ball club. Mattingly will
take over a young and talented team led by Giancarlo Stanton, Christian Yelich,
Dee Gordon, Jose Fernandez and others in hopes of toppling the top two teams I
the National League East Division, the New York Mets and the Washington
Nationals. The Miami job was basically Mattingly’s to lose all along and
Mattingly didn’t lose it unfortunately.
I say unfortunately because I, as a fan, wanted to see
Mattingly return to the city where he spent his entire playing career but I
have to admit that I never fully expected the reunion of Don Mattingly and the
New York Yankees to happen. I never lost hope but Mattingly deserves to manage
and he can manage in Miami, good for him.
Mattingly will be Giancarlo Stanton’s eighth different
manager since the beginning of the 2010 season, with a little stability in his
life imagine what that kid could do. Congratulations to Mattingly but more so
congratulations to the Miami Marlins organization and players, you guys got a
good one.
