  4. In this order, one being the best:

    1.)Scoscia-Always has the Angels playing very well.

    2.)Francona-Same as Scoscia, and he is always behind his players.

    3.)Torre-Seems to have pretty good seasons, and he is a smart manager.

    4.)Guillen-Always finds a way to light a fire under his teams ***.

    5.)Madden-Look at the turnaround he brought with just two years in TB.

  5. Definitely not Bobby Cox

  9. 1. Tony La Russa (I can't believe people don't have him on their lists. I'd explain why he deserves to be on there but that's already been explained).

    torre

    francona

    everybody else is just kinda so so

  17. 1. Tony La Russa

    2. Bobby Cox

    3. Mike Scioscia

    4. Jim Leyland

    5. Terry Francona

    I don't understand how anyone can omit Tony La Russa from this list. He is third on the all-time wins list and has a .535 winning percentage. He's taken teams to the playoffs countless times and has won two World Series with small market teams. He has changed the way that mangers use their bullpens, and now he's changing where managers consider batting pitchers in NL lineups. He's had a bigger impact on the game than any other active manager. And just look at what he has done with the Cardinals this year, a team that was widely expected to have a terrible season. And no, I don't think that Torre is one of the best managers in the game -- definitely not top 3.
