The Miami Marlins have lost their manager as Skip Schumaker has announced that he won't be returning to the team next season as he will hit the manager free agent market.

Schumaker was the National League manager of the year last season after surprisingly leading the Marlins to the playoffs went no one expected it and at 44 years old, Schumaker clearly still has a long managerial career ahead of him making him the top free agent manager this winter.
The 44-year-old Schumaker won National League Manager of the Year last year after leading the Marlins to a surprising postseason berth. When Marlins general manager Kim Ng resigned in October after the team proposed hiring a president of baseball operations over her, Schumaker's contract was restructured, and the team option for 2025 was removed from the deal. -Passan

Despite the Blue Jays stating they will likely be keeping Schneider as they manager, now that Schumaker is available, this could change everything as he could be an incredible replacement.
Other teams with unclear managerial futures include the Toronto Blue Jays, the Colorado Rockies and the St. Louis Cardinals, with whom Schumaker spent the first eight years of his major league career. Schumaker spent the 2022 season as the bench coach for Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol, who this spring received a contract extension through the 2026 season. Blue Jays manager John Schneider's deal goes through the 2025 season, and Rockies manager Bud Black has a deal expected to expire at the end of this season. -Passan

While the Blue Jays will not be the only team interested in Schumaker, this could be an incredible move for them if they want to truly compete for a World Series next season.
