His reputation started out as decent.
After 2015 we go to the World Series and lose to the Tigers.
His reputation increased to good.
We are in 2016 now, sitting at 26-11. I go to adjust a players strategy, just as I had done a days ago in the game, but now Bud Black won't let me touch a damn thing?
His reputation is excellent now.
I made him, so I guess it might be time for me to make another manager.

Managers can be extremely frustrating at times, but I love it that way. I traded for Craig Gentry to play LF and my manager kept starting Rajai Davis, no idea why. His BAA was 100 points lower and his defense is 55 to Gentry's 100 in LF. So what did I do? Traded Davis for a back up SS and minor league SP.
I had visions of myself in Moneyball telling my manager "you can't start Davis in left tonight" with him replying that he will and me saying "no you CAN'T, I just traded him to the Mets".
