Award week continued plodding along on Tuesday night, with the Manager of the Year awards being handed out in each league. If we’re being honest, this is the award I am both least interested in and least equipped to evaluate, so forgive me if this section is a little underwhelming.
On the American League side, though, it was a bit of a blowout with Kevin Cash of the Rays winning the award. In a way, this is a bit surprising to me. Typically this award is handed out to the manager of the team who surprised people the most, or at least made a big leap from the year before.
