Who is the better Bill? As a coaching genius now, personalities aside.
I'll take Martin. He won with the Twins, Tigers, Yankees and A's
He was the best strategic manager ever. And the guttiest. Remember the game against the Royals in the playoffs when he sat Reggie Jackson against Splittorf? Name me one manager today who would have the guts and moxie to do that. And then he pinch hits Jackson in a big spot and he delivers!
I agree Bellichek is great, althought the fans in Cleveland must scratch their heads when his name is brought up.
