Timeline
He is the son of Bob Skinner, a National League outfielder in the 1950s and 1960s, and himself a former MLB coach and skipper.
In, Skinner became the manager of the Rochester Red Wings, the Triple-A affiliate of the Minnesota Twins.
Joel Patrick Skinner (born February 21, 1961) is an American professional baseball manager and coach, and former Major League catcher and manager.
Skinner mostly has managed at the minor-league level, save for one half of one season at the helm of the Cleveland Indians.
Originally drafted by the Pittsburgh Pirates, Skinner was traded to the Chicago White Sox in 1983.
After brief call-ups to the majors over the next three years, Skinner was slated to start 1986 with the White Sox.
New general manager Hawk Harrelson had taken a liking to Skinner, and decided to make him the starting catcher in place of Carlton Fisk.
This made some sense on paper; Fisk was 38 years old, and conventional wisdom then as now held that catchers at that age don't have many years left.
Harrelson wanted to have Fisk's successor in place when Fisk retired.
To ease the transition, Fisk was moved to left field.
The move backfired when Skinner batted only .171 in April.
On May 10, Fisk became the regular catcher, and Skinner only made 25 more starts behind the plate before being traded to the New York Yankees on July 30.
Skinner's career never really recovered after that.

In 1997, Skinner managed the Class A Kinston Indians (Carolina League) as they won titles in both the first and second halves with an 87–53 record overall, earning him Carolina League Manager of the Year honors.
From 1998 through 1999, Skinner managed the Akron Aeros and was named USA Today Baseball Weekly's Minor League Manager of the Year in 1998, after guiding the Aeros to an 81–60 record and an Eastern League regular season title.
Skinner then managed the Triple-A Buffalo Bisons to the best record in the International League in 2000, including an IL North Division title with a record of 86–59 (.593).
