  • Acknowledgements
    ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank Professor Anne Preston for her continued support and guidance not only on this thesis but also in her classes. I would also like to thank the Economics Department of Haverford College for its support over the past four years. Additionally, I would like to thank my fellow classmates for their assistance and help both on this project and throughout our experience together at Haverford. 1 Abstract This is an investigation into and analysis of Major League Baseball General Managers from 1995-2005. Its aim is to evaluate General Managers based on the performance of the teams they create. It is also meant to put General Managers under the public microscope, a place which has previously been reserved for players, managers, and owners. The hypotheses include that there is a strong positive correlation between dollars spent per team win and the likelihood of being fired. Probit regression analysis demonstrated that many variables have significant effects on the probability of a General Manager being fired. This thesis concludes that team increases in team wins and making the playoffs all decrease the likelihood of firings. It also concludes that increases in dollars spent per team, GM Tenure, and GM Experience increase the likelihood of a General Manager being fired. 2 Table of Contents I. Introduction 4 II.

    2005 SUN DEVIL BASEBALL COACHING STAFF ASU head coach Pat #42 Pat Murphy Murphy has a PAT 401-196-1 record MURPHY in 10 years at the helm of the Sun Devils. He was the 2000 Pac-10 Coach of the Year and the 1998 Baseball America Coach of the Year. Jay J. Sferra Tim Esmay Jack Krawczyk 2005 SUN DEVIL BASEBALL 29 PAT MURPHYHEAD COACH In 20 years of coaching at the collegiate level, Murphy owns a career 774-367-4 record. At the Division I level alone, Murphy has recorded 719 wins in 17 years, averaging over 42 wins a year. With 20 more years of coaching, Murphy is on pace to break the all-time NCAA victories record by the age of 65. Before arriving in Tempe, Murphy took a virtually unknown Notre Dame baseball program from a non- fully funded sport into the national spotlight. His Notre Dame teams averaged over 45 wins a season during his seven years in South Bend. DEVILS EARN NATIONAL NO. 1 SEED IN 2004 The 2004 campaign marked yet another successful sea- son for Sun Devil Baseball. ASU recorded a 41-18 record, marking the fourth 40-win season under Murphy. Compiling a 28-7 record against the top-ranked non-con- ference schedule in the nation, the Sun Devils earned the national No. 7 seed while advancing to the NCAA Tournament for the fifth straight year. Despite suffering a disappointing exit from the NCAA Tournament at the hands of eventual National Champion Cal State Fullerton, ASU earned a final ranking of No.
