The important impact of leadership

The Colorado Rockies are in one of the worst places in their franchise history. For the first time, the team is all but guaranteed 100 losses in what is already one of the worst seasons for the franchise. Due to the continued downward spiral of the team, it leaves many to question or downright demand that certain changes be made, leaving manager Bud Black in the crosshairs of that conversation.

I am not here to assert whether Black should be relieved of his managerial duties or not. During his tenure as manager, he has done some good in helping mentor young players even though the results of the product on the field have degraded significantly since the back-to-back playoff appearances in 2017 and 2018.
