No, he just had to work harder with the Mets and Cards. I think I could manage the Yankees and their super-sized payroll to the playoffs. I know it is a tough job, but those guys never have to double switch and there are always plenty of pinch hitters available. It simply isn't as hard to do as the NL.
But based on the WS results since '73 the AL mgrs seem to be a little better at it than the NL mgrs, don't they?
