PIO Best Manager Picked, Rocky Mountain's Diaz Winner Saturday, October 15th , 2044 Wilerik Diaz celebrated a successful season with the Rocky Mountain Vibes by hosting team officials and select media at a Rocky Mountain area first-class eatery. But when he first came to town, the 2044 Pioneer League Manager of the Year was met with a good measure of skepticism. "Very few people believed in our ballclub when I got here. It just goes to show you that a bunch of talented ballplayers playing together can make any old manager a genius," a modest Diaz joked, not fully recognizing his own stature in the baseball community. However, baseball journalists duly noted his managerial skill as he skippered the Vibes to a 60-16 record this year and a first place finish in the South. |
