Corner Defense Specialist

This manager really emphasizes positioning at the corners and guards the lines aggressively. Heavy on defensive shifts, especially with outfield and depth adjustments. Pretty bold with the squeeze play too. Won't pull pitchers quickly but loves to play matchups with both pitchers and hitters. Moderate with basic running game but will use pinch runners frequently to get the right speed on the bases when needed. Bit of an interesting mix of old and new school - combines traditional pitcher usage with modern defensive tactics.

Manufacturing Runs Master

Really emphasizes creating runs through every small ball tactic in the book. Not afraid to steal but also loves the bunt game - both sacrifice and squeeze plays. Pretty aggressive with pitching around dangerous hitters and will adjust defensive depth frequently. Likes to use their bench, especially with pinch runners and pinch hitters late in games. Patient with pitchers but will look for platoon advantages when they make moves. You'll see a lot of action with this manager - they're always trying to make something happen on offense.
