Default Re: Fire Bobby Cox if he doesn\'t seal the deal?

the impact managers have on teams is overrated

postseason success or lack thereof is overrated

the braves dynasty is something to be marvaled at, not picked apart

[img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]..remember; the braves are seen every g nationally on wtbs; the teamis built to be competitive all season long...so people will not lose interest in the braves and ratings fall; the team is not built to win the playoffs; and they admit that..

cox is a player's manager and a good one; but to win the world series ya need an s.o.b.

where do they admit this?

what team would be built for the postseason if not one stacked with top notch starting pitching?

You don't need to be stacked with 4 or 5 good pitchers like the Brvaes have been for the post-season - you really just need 3 - even 2 like with Schilling/Johnson. It's not so much the Braves aren't built for post season, as it is there big advantage - deep starting pitching - gets neutralized in the playoffs by weaker teams.
