Former Phillies Manager, Coach, and Shortstop Larry Bowa Emerges as Manager Candidate for Marlins

The Marlins owner hates everybody whoever manages for him.   Former Phillies manager and shortstop Larry Bowa has a temper and is not afraid to speak directly and frankly.    Seems like the two would be a disaster, right?   That obvious disaster waiting to happen did not stop the Miami Marlins from interviewing Bowa […]
