Men With 30 Saves & The Other Men Who Love Them

What I like about Tony La Russa–in addition to his obvious talents as a Major League manager–is the sense of continuity you get, as a fan. When your team hires a new manager you have to learn their foibles. You have to figure out whether they're going to be combative, like Ozzie Guillen, or an up-and-comer, like Joe Maddon, or ready to strangle Jose Guillen, like Trey Hillman.
