The 101 wins were the Mets' highest total since the club won 108 games in 1986. New York finished in a first-place tie with the Braves in the NL East, though the Braves won the division crown on the head-to-head tiebreaker.

The Mets lost their wild-card series against the San Diego Padres 2-1 in the postseason.

Roberts, 50, guided the Dodgers to a franchise-record 111 wins, a high-water mark for an organization that has made the postseason in each of Roberts' seven seasons in the dugout, including six NL West titles.

Roberts, who was named NL Manager of the Year in 2016, owns a career .632 regular-season winning percentage. That's the highest percentage all-time among managers from one of baseball's extant leagues.

Only Bullet Rogan, Vic Harris and Rube Foster, all of whom managed in the Negro Leagues, own higher lifetime winning percentages.

NL Manager of the Year Voting

30 individual ballots were submitted for NL Manager of the Year, submitted by two writers representing each city in the National League:

MANAGER, TEAM FIRST SECOND THIRD TOTALS

Buck Showalter, Mets 8 10 7 77

Dave Roberts, Dodgers 8 4 5 57

Brian Snitker, Braves 7 5 5 55

Oliver Marmol, Cardinals 5 4 7 44

Rob Thomson, Phillies 2 7 5 36

Bob Melvin, Padres -- -- 1 1

-- Baseball Writers' Association of America

Snitker, 67, has gone from a career coach and minor league manager to a fixture atop annual NL Manager of the Year voting.

The Braves' 101 wins in 2022 were their most during Snitker's six-plus seasons with the franchise for which he's worked since 1977. Atlanta extended its streak of NL East titles to five.

The last two seasons have seen Snitker help Atlanta withstand disappointing starts only to catch fire late in the season. In 2021, the Braves' late-season hot streak culminated in a World Series championship.

The Braves didn't get that far in 2022, losing in the NLDS to a red-hot Philadelphia Phillies team. Still, Atlanta trailed the Mets in the division race by seven games on Aug. 10 before coming all the way back to win the division.

Snitker has finished in the top four in NL Manger of the Year balloting in five straight seasons.
