I'm not a hater by any means but I can't see how Trembly makes this list. You would think the top ten managers of all time for this franchise couldn't include a man who never won during his tenure in Baltimore. Trembly seemed like a nice guy and a good man, but he did nothing while he was here. I often felt bad for him, as I have for any man who managed the orioles this decade. Interesting article.

Hi Vex Machine. Your theory is correct. Just asked Connie Mack and Cy Young.

He practically invented "small ball" (then called "scientific baseball") with such innovations as the hit-and-run, sacrifice bunt, and Baltimore Chop.
