I realize Huggins had a few years of success as a manager. Yes, he won a few pennants and three World Series as a manager (taken your word on the amount). However, there were fewer teams back then...so winning a World Series may have been slightly easier than today. He also didn't have but about 1,400 or so career wins as a manager...far less than Tony LaRussa, Bobby Cox, or even Joe Torre by about 500 or so. He was a marginal ballplayer in his days... .260 hitter or something in that ballpark? I know he's in for his managerial performance...but I don't see where he was one of the greats of all time. Most of his success managing came in the last five years or so of his career...With that NY team he had, do you think another manager would have had the team somehow losing games?? |
