Stallings Great Team Manager Stallings Great Team Manager
Christy Mathewson argues that George Stallings is the era's top constructive baseball manager aside from John McGraw. He praises Stallings' relentless energy on the bench, his ability to push players like Josh Devore, and his impact with the Braves in Boston, contrasting with Chase and McGraw. The piece notes Stallings' influence on pennants, shifts in league power, and the Giants' reliance on his methods as the Braves surge.
