Comments on: Teams of Individuals? http://www.clwill.com/team-building/teams-of-individuals/ Advice, Commentary, and Resources for Building World-Class Teams Sat, 19 May 2012 08:18:07 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.1.2 By: Nick Roy http://www.clwill.com/team-building/teams-of-individuals/#comment-861 Nick Roy Sat, 24 Feb 2007 17:04:30 +0000 http://www.clwill.com/team-building/teams-of-individuals/#comment-861 I agree with you on this. The Florida Marlins resemble a true team. They are team of young kids who are mostly rookies. Last year, they overachieved under the direction of Joe Girardi as the manager. This is a team with the lowest payroll in the majors, won 78 games, and were in the playoff race up until the last week of the season. Joe Girardi was subsequently fired at the end of the season which makes absolutely no sense to me This year, the Florida Marlins have all of their starters from last year returning. They still have a very low payroll. I am looking to see this "team" continue to overachieve. Remember, back in 2003, the Florida Marlins had a payroll of $60 million and beat the New York Yankees in the World Series. I agree with you on this. The Florida Marlins resemble a true team.
