All this week, the FanHouse staff will look back at the most significant baseball storylines of 2010.
When the 2010 baseball season started, four of the top 14 managers all-time in terms of win total were at the helm of big league teams.
When 2011 starts, only one of those four, St. Louis' Tony La Russa, will still be on the job. Bobby Cox, Joe Torre and Lou Piniella all have retired.
That turnover was just part of one of the most active managerial seasons in the sport''s history. Twelve of the 30 managers who were in charge to start 2010 are gone, as are two interim managers.
Only 1992 and 2003 ever saw more movement managerially, 13 men losing their jobs in each of those years as clubs looked for the proper leadership.
