1. I ABSOLUTELY THOUGHT DAN WILSON WOULD TAKE IT DAYUM

   LET’S GOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

2. This man navigated two gambling scandals and pulled this team from the brink. Well fucking deserved

3. I’m so happy for him, he absolutely deserved it. I believe in Stephen Vogt!

4. I was told he was a dumbass who should be fired

5. Hell yes!!!

6. Sick

7. That’s awesome.

   Imagine what he could do with some heavy hitters.

8. You got the leadership. You got the 🐐

   Give them some help. Please?

9. easily deserved after the comeback and clase and ortiz fiasco

10. Well deserved! A lot of people doubted him this past season, and he still pulled this team together in the end…

11. Yet there will non ball knowers in here demanding he be fired. The dude came back from a 15.5 game deficit, navigated a gambling scandal with like two and a half hitters.

12. Well deserved!!

13. The Cleveland Manager award vs championships ratio the last couple decades is out of wack

14. I expect this to continue until we get a team that is expected to succeed.

15. He’s gonna platoon even harder next year isn’t he lol?

16. Get the man a roster to win a WS!!

17. “VoGt’s dEciSioN maKing sKiLLs r duMb durrrrrr” -this subreddit during a Tuesday day game

18. deserved

    some people were soooo certain that it would be Toronto’s or Seattle’s

19. I am literally crying happy tears right now! I am sooo happy for him!!
    (Some of it is pregnancy hormones 🤣)

20. 100 to 1 odds

    

21. Deserved!!! Now we gotta go the next step! World Series champions!

    The doomers in the early season and during the losing streak wanted him fired. 🤦🏻 never lost faith in him just knew he was going through a sophomore slump as a manager.

22. Vogt deserves it, talent hitting wise is horrible, pitching was good but the best closer in the MLB was literally gambling.

    Nobody deserves it more than him, congrats

23. Vogt got 17 first place votes, 8 second place votes and 4 third place votes among the 30 voting panel for a total of 113 pts. Toronto’s John Schneider got 91 pts.

24. and more than half of the clowns in this sub were calling for his head numerous times this past season…

25. My ❤️ is full. He absolutely deserved it!

26. I’m not even a Vogt fan but it’s hard to argue against this. One of the worst offenses in team history, lost two key pitchers to gambling, sold before the season and at the deadline, 15.5 games back, 10-game losing streak, 1-9 stretch late in the season, and somehow the team never gave up and rallied to win the division.

27. Congratulations! You deserve it.

28. Remember during that 10 day losing streak and so many wanted him fired? Pepperidge Farm remembers.

29. Congrats to him! Not gonna lie I was very nervous with his platooning but he’s shown himself to be a great Manager

30. I have no idea why I even comment in r/baseball but I’m getting downvoted to hell for saying what Vogt has done is deserving of manager of the year.

31. He looks just as surprised as anyone

32. I really thought it would of been seattles coach for winning the first title since 01?

33. Remember when people were calling fir his head mid season? Pepperidge farm remembers.

    And they’ll do it again next year. JK. 162-0, manager of the year threepeat and WORLD CHAMPIONS.

34. He fucking earned it

35. Only 3 other managers have ever won back-to-back. Pat Murphy (also this year), Kevin Cash, and Bobby Cox.

36. you can tell from a mile away how game smart he is and the passion he brings. he loves the team and fans. and truly makes makes the most at what’s given to him. Just imagine what he could do with a stronger offense.

37. 100% deserves it

38. The amount of blue jays fans ready to jump off a cliff over this is insane.
