My Take
Gonzalez fascinates me as a study in resilience. Born in Cuba, he carved out an American baseball life and climbed all the way from third-base coach to managing the Marlins and the Braves. He was fired from both jobs, but I refuse to read that as failure: managing is one of sport's most brutal seats, where yesterday's hero is today's scapegoat. What stays with me is the journey itself, an immigrant rising to lead a Major League dugout. That arc, from Holguin to the big leagues, is its own quiet triumph regardless of how the final chapters ended.
