Reports indicate that New York Yankees bench coach Joe Girardi has agreed in principle to become the Florida Marlins' new manager.
Girardi joins a group of former Yankee backstops who've managed in the big leagues, including Ralph Houk (1619 wins, three pennants, two titles), Yogi Berra (484 wins, two pennants) and, briefly, Bill Dickey. Joe Torre, of course, was a catcher himself, though never in pinstripes.
