The housecleaning among the Miami Marlins is apparently continuing.

SiriusXM MLB Network Radio’s Craig Mish reports that the Marlins have fired the man who plays their mascot, Billy the Marlin.

Source : The Marlins have terminated the man inside the suit of Billy the Marlin. Marlins spokesman says Billy himself has not been fired. He will remain Marlins Mascot, played by someone else.

The horror! Hopefully he didn’t do anything like the Mets mascot once did.

No word on whether Derek Jeter will be taking over the job.
