The Miami Marlins are hiring Los Angeles Dodgers first base coach Clayton McCullough as their next manager, sources told ESPN’s Alden González.
McCullough becomes the 14th full-time manager in franchise history. He replaces Skip Schumaker, who left the club via mutual agreement after the season ended.
The 44-year-old spent the last four seasons on Dave Roberts’ staff in Los Angeles. He previously spent seven years as the Dodgers’ minor-league field coordinator, giving him player development experience that may have given him an edge for the job with the rebuilding Marlins.
