Tracy Ringolsby of the Rocky Mountain News reports that Joe Girardi was in fact briefly fired on Sunday by Florida owner Jeffrey Loria, but Loria quickly recanted. (HT: Baseball Primer Newsblog.) However, some in the Marlins organization do not like Girardi's micromanaging. Meanwhile, "Girardi has had friends making it known in Chicago that he would like the Cubs job. The Cubs, however, aren't interested."
