Apparently the Marlins have made a 4-year offer to Bobby Valentine to become their manager, replacing the recently disposed Fredi Gonzalez.
Gonzalez if you recall, got into a spat with shortstop Hanley Ramirez this season, benching the petchulant shortstop for not hustling. While most people backed Gonzalez for that the truth is that when a manager gets into scraps with his star players he rarely wins in the long run. Despite that, the main reason the Marlins fired Gonzalez is he didn't win enough games.
Bobby V would be perfect for the Marlins. He could make things interesting in the NL East. Right now the Marlins are 6 1/2 back in the East, 2-games under .500. They are better than that and I believe Valentine would quickly help right the ship
