1,000 wins for Torre - a Red Sox view...

I am sure that my fellow blogger will offer a more appropriate tribute, but Joe Torre became the 4th Yankee manager to record 1,000 wins with his teams sweep of the Rangers this weekend.

However, when you think that this now means that Torre averages one World Series every 250 wins, while our own Terry Francona averages one World Series win every 212 wins... doesn't seem that impressive... ;-)

(And Yankee fans really need to look at the Yankees Wikipedia entry - enjoy the discussion of the "World Series drought")

Well done Joe.
