There’s a cause Dave Roberts was capable of coach the Dodgers to 111 wins and to a few World Sequence appearances (one championship) throughout this seven yr tenure. Roberts was not capable of win the Manager of the Year Award, however his accomplishments this season can’t be understated.
Roberts factors in the direction of the philosophies he has modified over time which have led to the success to date. The last word aim is to win championships and Roberts continues to carry the crew as shut as doable to the objectives.
The connection he chooses to develop along with his gamers goes a great distance (quotes by way of MLB Network).
“Primary. Nicely, one a part of it’s I’ve gotten to know my gamers extra, they’ve gotten to know me. However I feel one thing that actually stands out for me, Greg, is I’m utilizing — and to not say that I didn’t use my intestine or my eyes, and there’s plenty of discuss of knowledge and analytics, and for me I wouldn’t be the supervisor that I’m if I didn’t worth it”
It’s at all times the precise transfer to attempt to join together with your crew not directly to assist them comply with your lead and it appears he received’t look to alter that philosophy anytime quickly.
“However I feel with something, the extra time you could have, the extra expertise, the extra you could have relationships with individuals that you simply work with, you may type of, not essentially go rogue, however you may type of develop slightly bit extra on choices in recreation. And it’s been nice. For me, I really feel like I’m blessed to be part of this group. Andrew [Friedman], like I stated, we now have a terrific relationship. So, I’ve grown like that.”
It’s clear the imaginative and prescient for Andrew Friedman is to maintain Roberts with the Dodgers for a lot of extra seasons to come back. The Dodgers will proceed to make strikes amongst their roster and hopefully the communication and transparency with the gamers will assist propel Roberts to his second World Sequence title.
