I'd settle for a manager that realizes that matchups and leverage are far more important than having a "closer". Your best reliever should face their best hitters late in the game, regardless of if it's in the 7th or 9th inning.
If the last month has taught us anything, it should be that you can take fringe-y starting pitchers from AAA and make them decent relievers.
