They don't do much in terms of adding wins, but boy can they cause losses.

Over 162, managers do not matter all that much. In a short season/series, they absolutely matter.

As RPB has pointed out, it's part of the reason why Dusty Baker has a higher career winning percentage than Tony LaRrussa, but Tony has three World Series rings to show for his work.

No explanation for using Rodon as he did. Or why Dunning started if the plan was to pull him at the first sign of trouble.

If your entire plan for a must-win game hinges on a guy who had 6 career innings heading into the game, you might be a dumbass.
