Tuesday, Jerry Jeudy Jersey the . Though Maddon has a great track record, he now hasn't had a winning record since 2019, hasn't made the playoffs since 2018 and hasn't been to the divisional round of the playoffs since 2017. He's 68 years old.This is to say that while it wouldn't be shocking to see another team hire him, the po sibility of Maddon's managerial resume being complete exists. If it is, will he be a Hall of Famer? He'd be eligible five years after being done managing. Let's examine Maddon's case.In parts of 19 seasons, Maddon won 1,382 games, which is 31st in history, but he'll be 32nd soon enough ( manager Bob Melvin has 1,380 right now). While Maddon is ahead of a decent number of Hall of Famers here, sitting outside the top 30 doesn't exactly make him a volume candidate. Dusty Baker (not a Hall of Famer ... yet) has won over 2,000 games. Bruce Bochy, too. Lou Piniella won 1,835, Jim Leyland 1,769, Mike Scioscia 1,650 and none of these managers have made it.Maddon does have a better winning percentage than Bochy, Piniella and Leyland, but he's behind Baker and Scioscia. There is, of course, the po sibility that a number of the above names gets into the Hall of Fame at some point in the near future. Only Leyland and Piniella have been retired for more than five years. Plus, having fewer wins -- even a lot fewer -- doesn't nece sarily disqualify Maddon. We're just establishing the uphill battle.There is a Hall of Famer with a pretty similar stat line. Whitey Herzog won 1,281 games with a .532 winning percentage while Maddon won 1,382 with a .532 winning percentage. Denver Broncos Accessories Herzog made the playoffs six times (when it was a bit tougher to make it) compared to eight from Maddon. Herzog won three pennants to Maddon's two. They each won one World Series. Maddon was 32-35 in the playoffs while Herzog was 26-25.Of course, Davey Johnson won 1,372 games with a .562 winning percentage. He was 25-26 in six playoff appearances, winning one pennant and one World Series. He's not a Hall of Famer. Neither is Billy Martin (1,253 wins, .553 win percentage, 15-19 in five playoff runs, two pennants and one World Series). Where Maddon's case would look for a boost is in the special circumstances with the and .The Rays were still the Devil Rays when Maddon took over prior to the 2006 season and they were the embarra sment of baseball. Through their first eight seasons, 70 wins was their franchise . Maddon weathered through two 96-plus lo s seasons, but then everything changed. In 2008 Saivion Smith Jersey , the Rays won 97 games and the AL pennant. That was the first of six consecutive winning seasons, a stretch that included five 90-plus win seasons and four playoff berths. Remember, they never even came within 21 games of .500 before he arrived.The run included the 2011 comeback, when the Rays were down as many as nine games in the wild-card race in September and clinched a playoff berth on the final day of the season ( walk-off homer is one of the best highlights of the decade). In all, though, Maddon helmed the Rays' move from laughingstock to legitimate contender. He, obviously, wasn't solely responsible, but he was certainly a big part of it and it should matter here.Maddon's stint with the Cubs moves the needle as well.The turnaround was already in proce s -- so, to be clear, it would be folly to give Maddon even close to sole credit -- but he still took over a Cubs team that won 73 games in 2014. Steve Atwater Jersey They would jump to 97 wins in 2015, his first season, matching the highest total for the franchise since 1945 (they also won 97 in 2008 under Piniella). They made the NLCS for the first time since 2003.Of course, then there was 2016. The Cubs won over 100 games for the first time since 1910, the first pennant since 1945 and first World Series title since 1908. The Cubs would win the NL Central again in 2017, only the second time with back-to-back division titles in franchise history. They would make the NLCS and it's the only time in franchise history to go there three straight years. They were a wild card in 2018 and that marked the first time in franchise history the Cubs were in postseason play four consecutive seasons.I said Maddon's case lied in special circumstances and those are pretty special.Are they special enough for a manager who will sit 32nd in wins in a few days with one World Series title and two pennants? For now, it seems like Maddon falls short. The circumstances illustrated above certainly push him up into the territory where a discu sion is worthy, but he's in line behind Bochy -- along with Baker and Terry Francona (he wasn't mentioned above because he's an easy and obvious yes) once they retire. Then Piniella, Leyland and Scioscia would be contemporaries in a similar ballpark in the discu sion and I believe it's worth throwing Johnson in that mix as well.It should also be noted that Hall of Fame managers are inducted and never go through a BBWAA vote, which means it'll be a panel of 12 voters. There's always the po sibility some cronyism (note the case of Harold Baines that was greatly helped by former manager Tony La Ru sa) works on Maddon's behalf, depending on the Netane Muti Jersey panelists. It also seems unlikely to completely push him over a number of the names I mentioned above.Simply, Maddon going to the Hall of Fame looks like an uphill battle, but it certainly isn't impo sible. We'll call him a fringe candidate.
