Cito Gaston actually won 2 World Series and never won manager of the year.

Matt Williams won in 2014 then was fired the next year because everyone agreed he's a terrible manager. It's a meaningless award.

Bad example to refute cap's "point".

Don't they vote on this before the playoffs start anyway? If so, Warsh's two AL pennants wouldn't matter.

So Buck Showalter, Johnny Oats and now Jeff Banister won Manager of the Year as a Ranger. No Ron Washington? I wonder why!?!?! Interesting.


I wish we knew

I started off making that point but decided it didn't matter. Cito's just another guy who had success but never got an award. There's only 6-7 managers with a realistic shot at either league's award each year. They choose one guy and it's usually the one whose team made the biggest improvement over the previous year.
