The Miami Marlins hired Los Angeles Dodgers 1B coach Clayton McCullough as their next manager, reports said Sunday.
Miami is coming off a poor 62-100 season under Skip Schumaker, who lasted just two seasons after being hired in 2023. McCullough was involved in the interview process in 2022 before the club ultimately chose Schumaker.McCullough, now a World Series champion himself with the Dodgers, previously managed in the minors. He recorded a 402-357 mark with the Toronto Blue Jays' minor teams from 2006 to 2014.
McCullough, along with hiring coaches for his staff, will have plenty of work to do with Miami's roster. Jake Burger, Jonah Bride, Edward Cabrera and Sandy Alcantara are some of the notable names on the team, which will need eventually more talent to compete. With Major League Baseball playing four international series this year, what are some unique destinations that could be next on the list?
