The John Gibbons references are all well and good. And I understand the fanbases fondness for him. But let’s not forget that he had managed the Jays for a combined 7 seasons before making the playoffs and was actually on the hot seat in 2015 before they went on their big run. Also the highest paid managers right now are all out of the playoffs. Girardi, Maddon, Mattingly, Francona, Hinch, Martinez, none in the next round.
