Cookie Rojas

[emkayseven]

Anyone know why he isn't broadcasting anymore?

[Chewford]

Isn't he kinda old?

[emkayseven]

Just seems odd because he's been around for a while - particularly with this ballclub - and if he retired I feel like something would have been said. Raul Striker Jr. is by himself so he wasn't even replaced.

He's not listed on the broadcaster website: http://miami.marlins.mlb.com/team/br...s.jsp?c_id=mia

But at the end of January he was listed as an announcer on this broadcast: http://m.mlb.com/video/v31319327/coo...ove-radio-show

It would definitely be a big enough deal for some type of an announcement to be made.

I asked Victor on Twitter. Let's see what happens.

He responded via Twitter, Cookie was let go.

[Namaste]

What da fuck??

[Party]

Exactly. One man booth is brutal unless you are Vin Scully. They should just simulcast Felo Ramirez and Yiqui Quintana. I would get SAP for that.

[Miamarlin21]

Isn't that a little slap in the face?

[emkayseven]

any word on why he was let go? I don't understand at all.
--------------------
also WHEN did this happen? I posted the above radio show from January...also on March 21st he tweeted this in response to someone asking if he'd be in KC this year:

"Cookie Rojas @CookieRojas1 Mar 21
@Crackedbat no I don't travel with the team"
--------------------
and the Marlins tweeted on January 6th: Miami Marlins @Marlins Jan 6
Tune in now to @940WINZ for #Marlins Hot Stove Radio! Tonight's special guest will be former coach & now broadcaster, Cookie Rojas!

That's whack as fuck
