Maddon had a big contract 5yr@5 million per. Exactly counter to the the new dogma that suggests managers are little more than caretakers and are paid accordingly. It's likely that Maddon had more contractual control over lineups and pitching strategy than many others since the change in on-field control had not yet occurred.
