The fact that many people irrationally hated LaRussa does nothing to sidestep the fact that our present manager is dull as a tackhammer.
IMO, the main job of a MLB manager in 2015 is to manage the clubhouse. Create a winning atmosphere. Get the players to play together. Manage egos. Get the players to buy into what he is selling etc.

He is obviously doing that. As Larussa says, they play a hard 9.

The other main part in 2015 is when to pull and insert pitchers. He is still a work in progress in this part of the job.
