Girardi sets clean-shave policy
Manager brings Yankee influence to South Florida
By Joe Frisaro / MLB.com
New Marlins manager Joe Girardi may no longer be part of the Yankees organization, but he is bringing his New York influence to Florida.
According to a story in The Palm Beach Post, Girardi has instituted a clean-shave policy in his first season with the Marlins.
The Marlins and Yankees may be polar opposites in terms of payroll, but when it comes to facial hair Girardi is in agreement with George Steinbrenner, who long has had a similar policy in New York.
"With our guys, it shouldn't be a problem," Girardi told the Post. "They're probably too young to shave anyway."
Girardi added: "To me, the idea is to look professional. I understand it's important to players to have their own style, and I don't have a problem with that. But I want players to look neat and clean."
