Welcome Back Wiley, Now Fix D-Train
We saw this move coming and welcomed it. Mark Wiley should have never left the Florida Marlins in the first place but Joe Girardi wanted “his guys” when he was signed up for Marlins manager. Today, the Marlins brought him back to round out the coaching staff. The Associated Press reports…
The Florida Marlins today named Mark Wiley their pitching coach, completing the coaching staff for the 2008 season. The announcement was made by Marlins President of Baseball Operations Larry Beinfest.
“Mark [Wiley] is an accomplished pitching coach, and we are excited to have him back with the Marlins organization,” Beinfest said. “He will be an important part of our young pitchers’ development and success at the Major League level.”
That finishes up a coaching staff that consists of Carlos Tosca (bench coach), Mark Wiley (pitching coach), Jim Presley (hitting coach), Bo Porter (third base/outfield coach), Andy Fox (first base/infield coach), Steve Foster (bullpen coach), Pierre Arsenault (bullpen coordinator).
