I think he (Torre)'s overrated. With that much talent, winning is hard not to do. I'd be curious how Narron would be with those Yankee teams.
Managing that many big egos in New York is much harder than you think. Joe makes it look easy which is why he's a great manager.
It's still hard not to win with the players he has had.


Believe me when I tell you that winning a championship is blind, dumb
luck. If you have guys like Torre at one end of the spectrum, someone
you'd call overrated, and guys like Narron at the other (and what you'd
call him isn't entirely printable), who exactly is a great baseball
manager? Bobby Cox only has one title in 15 postseason trips. Tony
LaRussa has just one title in twelve attempts. Lou Pinella couldn't
even take two ALCS games with his 116 win Seattle team, much less win
the World Series.

Who can we call a great manager these days?
