Joe Girardi has made his first hire:
New Marlins manager Joe Girardi has made his first hire, adding Bobby Meacham as his third-base coach.
Meacham, 45, spent last season as a minor league infield instructor in the Rockies system. Previously he managed in the Pirates organization.
He replaces Jeff Cox, the Marlins third-base coach the past two seasons.
Meacham played in the majors for the Yankees.
Ho hum. Nothing too exciting to see here.
I wish there was mention of Meacham's success stories (with developing players) or a mention of him being bilingual. Since there's neither, I'm ambivalent about this news.
