Buck Showalter, 59, the man accountable for reinvigorating the ’92 Yankees, ’98 expansion D’Backs, 2003 Rangers, and 2010 Orioles. The 2014 American League Manager of the Year will be entering his sixth season with the Orioles in 2016. Showalter’s turnaround prophecy has put him with Tony La Russa as being the only managers to win the Manager of the Year award with three separate teams. The Orioles manager is also a member of another elite club, as being only the sixth manager to win the award at least three times.
The former ESPN analyst took charge as manager for the Orioles in the midst of the 2010 season on August 3rd.
