I guess having a real manager does make a difference.

92 wins for the Indians?

Who saw that coming...

What team(s) are you referring to that don't have a "real" manager?

He is the guy Theo hired to be the Red Sox coach and Coach Dale was suppossed to be the next Francona.

Guessing that plan is being "Revised"

I'm a major proponent of the overwhelming majority of managers having zero impact either way on record. Francona has jumped into the small category of managers who do in my estimation.
