From the Cubs Brickyard: (Chicago, IL) - The postseason awards are in full swing, and the Chicago Cubs are raking in the hardware. Earlier in the week, catcher Geovany Soto was named the NL Rookie of the Year, only to be followed by manager Lou Piniella winning the NL Manager of the Year Award.
It is a well-deserved accolade, to be certain, after he led the Cubs to the best regular season record in the National League. And Lou wants to make sure he thanks everyone who helped him get where he is.
Though it’s a surprisingly short list.
“I’m really excited about this award because it emphasizes what a tremendous year this was,” Piniella said at a press conference Thursday, accepting the award. “The year was tremendous for many reasons, but mostly because I was the greatest manager in the National League. This award proves that.”

Lou also said: "Hey, It's not my fault that these punk sissy's go into the fetal position once the playoffs begin. I can't go to bat for them. Several people told me the Cubs were eventually going to end up making a loser out of me, and It's Gonna Happen!!"
