First, SBN blog Amazin' Avenue gives it a rave review, declaring:
If the Mets chapters are any indication of what we can expect from the rest of the book, Evaluating Baseball's Managers figures to be treasure. I certainly recommend it to any baseball fan with a fondness for history or any affinity for thinking about the game in new ways. Other than Bill James's book on managers—difficult to find these days—there's really nothing else like it out there.
Also, Metsradamus gave his thoughts. It's mostly a descriptive review, but he endorses it, saying:
But before you know it, you're going to have to get your girl or guy a Valentine's Day gift. Why not consider curling your significant other up with a good book to get them through those warm summer nights after new Met Jay Marshall gives up a grand slam to Alfredo Amezaga.
I have a suggestion for you: How about Evaluating Baseball's Managers, 1876-2008
