That was answered on page 1. Managing is more about managing an entire season, not going for broke/all out to win 1 random game.

He was dealing with some extremely seedy people. Who's to say they weren't paying him directly to throw a few games when he wasn't betting on his own team to win?

If the mob has the coach of a professional sports team in its pocket, you can bet (no pun intended) that they're going to use him.
