it isn't total [censored] because they actually measured the impact of managers on similar teams as well as various other squads of players

managers all perform at basically the same level. the only adjustment that happens is that managers LOSE additional games by doing stupid [censored].

you could look it up if you cared enough to study the issue using the socratic method or you could just reference the great tim mccarver

So basically your saying that Dusty Baker, if he makes the exact same in game calls/moves, has the same results as Joe Torre from 96-07 and the players perform exactly the same.

Or what he doesn't have exactly the same but has such a minimal effect that it is the difference of 1 game or less?

you picked the actual worst possible manager. he is worth significantly less games to his team because he is a giant idiot.

anyway the yanks probably still make the playoffs with him as the manager despite being awful
