If you still have room, I'll like to use Harvey Kuenn & twist his managing days.  Q, sorry for asking what is probably obvious, but its been too long since I did any twisting--just what is it (am I using any yr he managed?)

Yeah, take any player that Harvey managed and use any of their seasons.  Hope that makes sense.  So, you could use a Rollie Fingers Oakland season, or a Cecil Cooper Red Sox season, or any Robin Yount season.  And so on.

I was looking at Harvey Kuenn's managerial record and wondered why he got fired after an 87-win season.  Looks to me like Harry Dalton overreacted after a couple of big injuries to Fingers and Vuckovich.  Anyway, here's a really nice read from SABR on Harvey's life and career:

@poetfred: we definitely have room for you.

Thanks for chiming in, sinfonian, and for the story on Harvey Kuenn.

Joe Gordon.

Twisting his managerial seasons. 

Give me a day or so and I'll have a team ready.
