## Resource

Milwaukee Brewers dominate as Pat Murphy eyes a historic third straight National League Manager of the Year award—has any contender done more with less? Sully spotlights Murphy’s leadership, sharp defense, and strategic smarts, arguing no other manager matches his impact in 2026. The episode also examines the award’s evolving criteria and revisits surprising past winners like Tony Peña and Joe Girardi. American League races heat up as Kevin Cash (Tampa Bay Rays), Stephen Vogt (Cleveland Guardians), and Will Venable (Chicago White Sox) shape the Manager of the Year narrative. Can Venable’s turnaround for the White Sox secure him the honor despite low preseason expectations? The show explores which skippers could cement a Hall of Fame legacy with a World Series win, with intriguing cases for Don Mattingly (Philadelphia Phillies) and Dave Roberts (Los Angeles Dodgers). Sully challenges listeners—who truly deserves baseball’s managerial crown this season?
