I, the manager

The Palm Beach Post's Joe Capozzi writes that new Florida manager Fredi Gonzalez may miss the beginning of spring training because he's on jury duty.

Gonzalez is empaneled on a case that began January 8 and is expected to last six weeks. The Marlins start spring training February 17. I believe Gonzalez is Juror #7.

Now, an NBA or NFL head coach would never end up on a jury - prejudiced with too much courtroom experience.

Ahh, so Gonzalez is a juror in the trial of Joe Girardi! I sense a conflict of interest here.

I looked around to see who would take the bait and run with the obvious Bored Editor Pun. As far as I can tell, no one has:
