    The day after was no easier than the night before for Marlins players disheartened at the news of hitting coach John Mallee’s dismissal.

    Logan Morrison looked like he might cry. Not sob, just produce a few angry, bitter tears. He manage to hold them in while talking about hitting coach John Mallee, who the Marlins fired after losing their seventh in a row Wednesday to the Braves.
