A good manager comoared to a bad manager in MLB is woth like 4 wins max.

Pretty much this. Every few years, I see the same thing. Fans hate the manager, barely say a thing about the GM. Baseball managers are close to irrelevant unless they are injuring their pitchers or playing small-ball. GM's should always get the heat for failure, but they rarely do.
