manager for eleven seasons. Well, nine full seasons, two-part seasons. The team had a 793-789 record with him at the helm. And we made it to the playoffs twice during his time.. Over the last 50 games, with Gibby pushing the buttons, we went 20-30. In the next three seasons, we finished third, second and third. In 2008 we had high hopes, but things didn’t go well.Menchersonturned out to be mistaken.
Fast forward to 2013, some Farrelling jerk left us for his ‘dream job’ , and the team brought Gibby back. After several disappointing seasons, Gibbons got us back to the playoffs for the first time in over 20 years. Two years in a row, we made it to the ALCS. Gibby was fun. He was a great interview and had a folksy way about him. He didn’t bunt much, so I was happy . There were moments with the bullpen that differed from what I would have liked, but find a manager that doesn’t have moments like that.
