The best of managers can only put the team on the field. He can neither hit the ball, catch the ball, or throw the ball. At best he is there to make sure the best person for that position is on the field on that given day. He then is charged with making the needed changes as the game goes on to maximize the teams strengths depending on the situation. For Joe to win so many games as the Yankee skipper is an accomplishment in itself. George is a tough boss who thinks he can manage, thinks he should manage. Between Joe and Brian deflecting the Boss's tirades from the team, they deserve every ounce of credit that is given to them. Great job Joe, you used the talent presented to do a remarkable job managing the team. I for one am ready for another thousand wins
1000 wins for Joe Torre
