Along with Hurdle and Mattingley.
But Fredi sucks, he needs to fired, AHHHHHHHHHHHH!
I think Hurdle wins it.

Good managers?
Hurdle for sure. Fredi and Mattingly not so much.
Just because you win an award doesn't mean much. How many gold gloves did Derek Jeter win? Fredi isn't a terrible manager and yes I wanted his head when I was listening to the game and talking to my buddy and I tell him "Damn all Fredi has to do is put Kimbrel in and we will take this back to ATL." My Buddy-"Dude, he's bringing Carpenter in and has him in the BP". Me-"Are you f'ing kidding me, this is our season on the line how dumb is this MF'er, watch I bet we lose this F'ing game and if we do I want his a@# fired...watch what I tell you. Carpenter is going to blow this". That's exactly how that conversation went and I'm not even exaggerating.
What I've noticed on this board is how many think the grass is always greener on the other side and it's routine around here. I mean it's just crazy how much Braves players are under appreciated on this board and I'm not talking about Fredi but the team in general.
This is simply a joke
here comes the
glad fernandez was a finalist for CY young
Hurdle will win it, but good for Fredi nonetheless
Chopping With The Braves And Rolling With The Tide
LOL, I can picture some of you guy's heads exploding when reading that
Also, Freeman got left out of the top 3 for NL MVP. Goldschmidt, McCutchen and Molina. Molina being in that group is an absolute joke. Our line up had two a bunch of inconsistent play and two of the worst offensive production from two regulars maybe ever and yet he still had 100+ RBI's. What a joke.
Freddie Freeman, Teheran and Kimbrel were surely also in the conversations. Good to see our deserving players and manager getting some recognition.

Palmeiro won a gold glove while only playing 1b for like 6 games all year, so you saying?
Nah, not really. I can see Molina over Freeman.
You yourself said Mattingly isn't good. So, what's this mean? Absolutely nothing.

Never said that, but he made an insanely dumb decision that might of cost them the series.
People are going out of their way to try and prove they are right about Fredi instead of simply congratulating him on doing a good job with this team. Simply amazing! Everyone knew he was going to be a candidate for this award. It might not mean much but what it does mean is the man did a very good job managing this team and isn't nearly as bad as people on this board want him to be. Manage of the year candidates don't get fired. Sorry to disappoint everyone but Fredi will be here for a very long time.
Don't get fired? Tell that to Mattingly. To Baker (who was one of the finalists). And several others throughout the years. I doubt very seriously that Fredi will be with the Braves in 2015.
And how exactly is that a good thing? You're pretty much saying we should all get used to seeing the Braves get out managed by the majority of the managers in baseball. Awesome...
All you need is Hart and Cox.

We're top 5 in wins or somewhere near that in baseball since he's become manager.
So he must be doing something right.
Joe Girardi
But yeah, usually they don't.
Wins don't matter apparently.
There is no way he's fired after next year imo. If we didn't fire Bobby, why would we fire Fredi? They are very similar.
