Really no surprise on either manager selected as manager of the year. Lou Piniella led the Cubs to the leagues best record this year. This marks Piniella’s 3rd manager of the year award (1995 & 2001)
Joe Maddon being selected as the AL manager of the year should be more like the *no shit* headline of the day. Maddon took the worst team in the majors last year, to the World Series this year.
