Casey Stengel and Dave Roberts...

[Shoeless Moe]

Stengel is beyond overrated.

All you are talking about is his Yankee years.

You are neglecting the 9 years he managed in Brooklyn & Boston and had a terrible record.

And again with the Mets, 4 brutal years.

I could have managed the 50's Yankees to 7 titles, maybe even 9 or 10.

They were stacked.

All we were talking about is 7 World Series titles in a decade.

I wish I was as passionate about anything as you are about hating the Yankees

Dodgers have been stacked and look at what Roberts has done.
i am no Stengel apologist but he is infinitely better than Roberts

If the team won 111 games you don't fire the manager

I'm not sure it's the managers fault when three of his four starting pitchers put up ERAs 5.40 or higher in the playoffs.
