Loosely following because it's a terrible award show and for some reason I chose to watch the probably equally terrible Bucks game, but so far I've gathered that both Turang and Chourio are on the All-MLB First Team.

This team probably gonna have multiple Hall of Famers when it's all said and done. What a time to be alive, and a Brewers fan.

I mean, he should be a lock. I get that the baseball HOF voters are mostly old, miserable boomers who still care way too much about longevity crap. But it'd be like if Phil Jackson retired after the first Bulls 3-peat and people were arguing that he didn't deserve to go into the Hall.

Only Bobby Cox, Buck Showalter and Tony LaRussa have 4 MOTYs and they all managed 20+ years. Murph has gone 3/3 with a ring. When you factor in market size and youth it’s even more of an achievement.

If he retired today he should be a lock and if not you’d have a right to question the legitimacy of a hall of fame in general.

The average HOF manager (there's 22 of them) has

3636 G
1943-1673 record
.537 W-L%
270 G>.500
7 Playoffs
5 Pennants
2.5 WS

Murph's got a ways to go. If he wants a chance at the HOF he's got to make up his lack of longevity with WS dominance.

Agreed. I think he has to win another WS to have any realistic shot.

I didn't realize there were so few managers in the Hall. Baseball is **** weird and way too stingy.

There are multiple managers who won atleast 2 World Series that havent gotten in. Unfortunately Murph has a ways to go it seems. But build him a statue outside Miller Park
Coach Drew: "Milwaukee has always been a team that I have been intrigued by. When we played them, they were a tough team for us to play. Although we did beat them all four times"
