Derek Jeter is still fresh into his tenure as Marlins owner, but he’s already making moves within the organization. Well, we think.
Jeter made several firings by proxy this weekend, firing veteran ownership pieces such as Jack McKeon, skipper of the 2003 World Series team. David Samson, of the Marlins front office, was the one to relay the information from Jeter to the fired.
It’s a strange strategy by Jeter, as many are saying he should have gotten up and broken the bad news himself. It’s disappointing to see Jeter get off to this type of start, but the offseason will be crucial in determining whether or not Jeets has the wherewithal to run a team in need of a shake-up.
