As Houston patiently waits for its next great season, one will ask can A.J. Hinch do it? Certainly there have been many managers who have tried, failed, and maybe were not so bad. The quality of these athletes at the end of the day will make or break the manager. His job is to keep the players enthused, make sure they play the game the right way, and most importantly put players in the right place to succeed.

If Hinch can do all of the above, he will at the very least put himself in the running to make the next variation of this list! Now it is your time to vote. Which of these managerial seasons would you rank as your number one pick? Be sure to come back to Climbing Tal’s Hill on February 22 for Thomas’ recap on this series. Thanks for reading!
