I would argue respectfully that both Will Smith and Jansen came through bc Snit never wavered in his belief in them. He displayed complete trust and confidence in their abilities And their status as his closer—even when their performances waivered.
When a manager has your back without question, it inspires self confidence and players want to elevate their play. Snit’s popularity with his players is amazing. He’s deftly managed those personalities and egos. IMHO he’s done a terrific job. 🍊👍😀👊😃
I will respectfully disagree, as anyone could win with this roster. There is a reason Will Smith is no longer on the roster.

  • 1919 - Ed Cicotte pitches Game Seven, and the White Sox play like they mean it. Joe Jackson and Happy Felsch drive in two runs each for a 4-1 win to cut the Reds' lead to four games to three in the best-of-nine Series.
1919 is the Black Sox’s World Series.

And the Don Larsen World Series perfect game in 1956 is incredible. Today’s analytics probably would‘ve pulled him after the fifth 🙄

No kidding. I’m never pulling a guy with a perfect game. I don’t what the pitch count is.
