Bochy can really run a team, when he has players. Congratulations to him, great manager.

No qualifier needed…

Bochy now ranks among the best baseball managers ever.  Period.

Heck, ESPN posted an article suggesting he may be at the top of the list.

Beg to differ. I added the qualifier because 13 of Bochy's 26 seasons -- a full 50% -- were worse records than the worst full year ever managed by the guy who got fired. That's 1995, 1997, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2007, 2008, 2013, 2017, 2018, 2019.

Presumably those were seasons when free agents didn't work out, regulars had bad years, too many rookies, etc. You know, seasons during which Kapler never experienced those things.
