The Sox DOMINATED the astros both on the field and in the dugout this series. First team in baseball history to have the lead in every inning in a multiple game series just shows what Will can actually do with proper prep.

This season, they again improved their win total by 24. Only two other managers in history — Miller Huggins of the 1925-27 New York Yankees and John McGraw of the 1902-04 New York Giants — have come off full seasons and improved teams by at least 19 wins in back-to-back years.22 and 19 game improvements for Huggins (though he had been managing for a while already), 36 and 22 for McGraw to start his managerial career. The '27 Yanks won the series and the Giants won in 1905 (and made the 1904 WS, but it wasn't played), so make of that omen what you will...

Conventional wisdom is that conventional wisdom is conventional---but put a decimal point in there somewhere
