Congrats Ozzie, you definitely deserve it!

 

Should have been a run away vote, but it definitely shows the media bias against the Sox.

 

Ozzie was not even on all 28 ballots, he was left off one completely. I wonder who left him off. Here is the top 4:

 

----- 1st - 2nd - 3rd - Total

Ozzie - 17 - 5 - 5 - 105

Wedge - 6 - 11 - 8 - 71

Torre - 4 - 7 - 2 - 43

Macha - 1 - 3 - 7 - 21

 

Torre gets 4 First place votes? With that lineup and you lose in the ALDS? Zimmer could have done that.

And no first place votes for Mike Scoicia who did a way better managing job than either Macha or Torre.

The dude is amazing. His email address was published in the f***in paper and he reads and answers people's emails. What other manager would do that?

 

It was awesome when he said Buck Showalter was jealous of him and now there is one more reason why.

 

He and Torre are the only managers whose jersies you can buy like the players'. It took Torre years to get that status.

 

Ozzie rocks.
