This team has had every reason to fall apart, but it hasn’t yet and surely won’t. That’s due to a manager who does nothing high-profile except get thrown out of games but who runs the smoothest operation in the major leagues.
Every year we say, “This could be Cox’s best job,” and every year there’s cause. This time he’s working without 60 percent of his rotation, without both his set-up man and his closer, without two-thirds of his starting outfield (and with the other one-third in a monumental funk) … and still the Braves are within 4 1/2 games of first place with 82 games remaining.
Most teams so egregiously beset would have seized the easy excuse. Cox doesn’t accept excuses. He treats all his men like real men, and they act accordingly.

Bobby cox is the best, always has been and always will be, even if you dislike the braves you have to respect the guy as one of the best managers..

No doubt about it. If I could have my pick of anyone to manage my team, it'd either be Cox or Jimmy Leyland.

now way they fall apart. they prb dont make playoffs but this team is loaded when healthy. prob is seems like 60 percent of major contributors are out, which gives experience to youngsters so watch out for next few years. my advive for phillies and mets is get the championship now or wait another 14 straight years. hmm wish we coulda got at least another world series title tho. oh well rather be there every year than struggle to get there every year. smart team manager and smart presedint and gm. chop chop!!!
