Too much emphasis is put on in game managing, and not managing the players. Even if you make every correct decision, you may still lose the game. Even if you win games, it often gets to the point, the players resent, that you act like they can't win without your genious at the controls. Players are always going to want a manager who puts them in their roles and lets them win or lose the games.
Over a 162 game season, it is not always worth a move that increases your chance of winning one game by a couple %. That move could have a negative long term effect.
Lou is a fiery, willing to break some eggs, play a little bit by his guts manager. He has not been fiery, and has been breaking eggs like a guy trying to cook in the dark. He started out this way in 2007. It may be, that he has not got a handle on the team yet.

I like you guys a lot.
