Nick Leyva Will Be Sending Himself Home

Former Phillies' coach Nick Leyva got waved home on October 8th as the Milwaukee Brewers opted not to bring him back as a third base coach for next year.

As the Phils' manager from 1989-1991, Leyva went a not-so-lusty 148-189 and was fired in the beginning of the '91 derby. Those were indeed some lean times so it's not easy to tell how much of the blame for that brutal won-loss record is, but it still doesn't look favorable in the record books.

Anyway, let's see if he resurfaces somewhere else as the coaching shuffle in the MLB continues.
