My Take
Servais is the kind of baseball lifer who earns respect the hard way, grinding through years as a journeyman catcher before reinventing himself in the front office and dugout. As Mariners manager he carried the franchise to its first postseason in over two decades in 2022, which in Seattle counts as something close to a miracle. I appreciate that he leaned into modern analytics without losing the catcher's feel for handling a pitching staff. He was never the flashiest skipper, but his steady, communicative style kept a young roster pointed in the right direction longer than most expected.
