Baseball Player

The Resume

Why he might be annoying:

    He never reached the major leagues as a player.
    His lone game as the Marlins interim manager was remembered for a loss which added onto the team’s ten game losing streak, and was replaced by Jack McKeon the following day (2011).
    He was reassigned from the Cubs bench coach position when Joe Maddon took over the managerial position.
    He returned to it after Maddon’s hire, Dave Martinez left to take the Washington Nationals managerial job.
    He turned down the New York Mets managerial position, even though he was offered a lucrative salary.
    He recorded two 100+ loss seasons in his first three seasons with the Orioles.
    His first playoff appearance as the Orioles manager was remembered for the team being swept by the Texas Rangers in the ALDS (2023).

Why he might not be annoying:

    He spent his entire playing career in the Chicago White Sox farm system.
    He gradually worked his way up the managerial ladder in the Marlins farm system, which helped him earn the interim manager position, albeit one game.
    He was a member of the coaching staff on the Cubs team that ended a 108 year World Series drought (2016).
    His Oriole teams showed gradual signs of improvement every season under his leadership.
    He guided the Orioles to the franchise’s first 100+ win season in over 40 years (2023).
    His 2023 Oriole team became the first team in major league history under the balanced scheduling not to lose a series to all 29 other teams in a single season.
