Weyerhaeuser's Finch Cops ML Best Manager Award Tuesday, October 21st , 2031 When Jason Finch was hired to lead the Weyerhaeuser Lumberjacks, fans were expecting improvement over the last manager. Today, flanked by team officials, Finch accepted the Meares League Manager of the Year Award, noting the level of passion for the Weyerhaeuser Lumberjacks. "The biggest challenge was the fans. I don't know how many times I was asked, if I thought the club was good enough. It was as if they expected failure. It was much easier to win over the ballplayers. Slowly but surely the fans began to believe in us." Finch led Weyerhaeuser to a first place finish in the Meares League Holbert Division. The Lumberjacks ended up with a 94-46 record. Finch is looking forward to the offseason. "We're reviewing our options. You never stand still in baseball. You either get better or worse, 'cause everyone else is out to get your free agents or deal for your prospects. It's going to be a challenge." But the skipper has more than proven he is equal to the task. |
