McKeon?

Really, the fading Marlins hired Jack McKeon as their interim manager? How old is that guy, 80?
Well, actually, he is 80. He is the second oldest manager in baseball history after Connie Mack who was piloting the Philadelphia Athletics, suit and all, when he was 87.
The Marlins have to be one of the most disappointing teams in baseball. Edwin Rodriguez "resigned" in the wake of a 10-game losing streak that has the Fish in last place in the NL East.
I have no beef with McKeon being hired on. Although it seems to be a strange choice, he's only going to manage out the season. What can it hurt. Plus it will be fun to see him napping in the dugout during games.
Colin Cowherd said on his show today, "The people in Florida are wondering who the new kid is managing the Marlins." Good line.
