Eight managers, including Joe Maddon of the Chicago Cubs, Dave Martinez of the Washington Nationals and Don Mattingly of the Miami Marlins are on the bubble with less than two months to go.
The job status of Washington Nationals manager Dave Martinez will be determined by what happens to his club in the final two months of the season. Dave Martinez has been on the hot seat as Washington Nationals manager all season, and that seat's not going to cool off much in the final two months.
If the Nationals don’t make the playoffs under Martinez for the second season in a row, odds on he’ll be looking for a job elsewhere. Gabe Kapler, in his second season guiding the Phillies is also high on the list, which also includes Don Mattingly of the Miami Marlins, Mickey Callaway of the New York Mets, Andy Green of the San Diego Padres, Scott Servais of the Seattle Mariners, and Ned Yost of the Kansas City Royals.
Guys like Alex Cora of the Boston Red Sox, Torey Lovullo of the Arizona Diamondbacks, and Bud Black of the Colorado Rockies seem safe despite under performance by their respective clubs. They signed contract extensions before the season.Martinez was placed on the griddle earlier in the season when his club, sans Bryce Harper, opened 14-22. They’ve won 45 games and played .592 ball over the last 76 games since then to jump back into contention.
