Johnny Neun managed two major league teams, the Yankees in 1946 and Cincinnati from 1947-1948. Each time, he was replaced by someone who was nicknamed “Bucky”.

Left-hander Lawrence Paul Casian played for the Twins from 1990-1994. He was born in Lynwood, California, went to high school in Lakewood, California, attended Cal State-Fullerton, and was drafted by the Twins in the 6th round in 1987. He pitched very well in the low minors, but stumbled when promoted to AAA Portland in 1989. Switched to the bullpen in 1991, he began pitching significantly better. Casian got brief trials with the Twins from 1990-1992, but made the team for the full season in 1993. He had a good year out of the bullpen, appearing in 54 games and going 5-3 with a 3.02 ERA and an ERA+ of 144. Casian got off to a poor start in 1994, however, and the Twins placed him on waivers. He was selected by Cleveland and finished the season with the Indians, but continued to pitch poorly and was released. The Cubs signed him, and Casian split the next two and a half years between Chicago and AAA Iowa. He pitched very well in both places in 1995 and 1996, but got off to a poor start again in 1997, and was placed on waivers again. He was chosen by the Royals, but was released again after two months. Casian signed with the White Sox for 1998 and was at AAA for most of the season, pitching only four innings in the majors. He signed with the Devil Rays for 1999, but was released in spring training and was out of baseball. As a Twin, he was 9-7, 4.73 with a 1.49 WHIP and an ERA+ of 94. He appeared in 113 games and pitched 144.2 innings. Larry Casian was the pitching coach and recruiting coordinator for the University of Portland from 2006-2015.  At last report, he was a scout for the San Francisco Giants and was based in Salem, Oregon.
