Dump:

Francona is a sharp baseball man. Highly regarded in the business by different people in different areas. Knows the game, gets along with players...he'll get the best out of the talent Cleveland has (and they have some...)

And in what is generally regarded as a mediocre division it doesn't take that much to change the culture of things.

I don't think most people think of him as a former White Sox minor league manager.

Even if Michael Jordan was the best player he ever coached?
