Appreciate the success he had here but with the core having come up short the last few years in a row, it was probably best for someone to move on before things got too stale and I think Mattingly sensed that too. Definitely had his tactical shortcomings but I appreciate how he was able to navigate that clubhouse without blowing things up, which easily could have happened.
