Francona, who has been with the Indians since 2013, has been a pillar of success for the team. During his tenure, the Indians have made the playoffs four times, including a World Series appearance in 2016. Francona has also been named the American League Manager of the Year twice, in 2013 and 2016.
The Indians have had a lot of success under Francona’s leadership. He was able to turn the team around from a struggling franchise to one of the best teams in baseball. He also helped develop some of the team’s young stars, such as Francisco Lindor and Jose Ramirez.
Francona’s retirement marks the end of an era for the Indians. He will be remembered as one of the greatest managers in franchise history. His legacy will live on in Cleveland for years to come.
