Clayton McCullough has been appointed as the new manager of the Miami Marlins, taking over from Skip Schumaker, who departed after a disappointing 2024 season. McCullough, previously a first base coach for the Los Angeles Dodgers, will lead the Marlins as they continue their rebuilding efforts following a tumultuous year.

Despite a promising 2023 season, the Marlins struggled in 2024, leading to significant roster changes and a focus on developing young talent. McCullough's experience with the Dodgers' successful player development system will be crucial as he aims to restore the Marlins to competitiveness.
