Why the Braves Gm doesn't fire Bobby Cox right now?

Question

But, the Braves can't get rid of Chipper, Smoltz, Glavine, Hudson, HAMPTON and everyone of them at the same tiem just because they got injuried. He should have planned correctly the team for this season and he didn't. He put again Hampton in the rotation knowing that he wasn't reliable anymore. He looked for Glavine knowing that he was too old. What can you tell me now?

Answer 1

Bobby Cox is the greatest Braves manager ever, and a future HOF manager too.

Answer 2

It's not Bobby Cox's fault the team suffered from injuries to their pitching staff and players.

Cox is a great manager.

So He does not deserve to be fired.

Answer 3

It's not his fault that his players aren't healthy, he's only has what he has.

Answer 4

And then Penn State can fire Joe Paterno and FSU can fire Bobby Bowden?

He is not going to go that route with a guy like Cox, he has earned the right to finish out the season before they look at going a different direction.

Answer 5

Fire a guy that lead them to the playoffs for 14 straight season?It's not Cox fault the Braves suck they we're bound to start being a rebuilding team soon or later and their there now...Glavine and Smoltz are past their primes and Chipper is injury prone now.

Answer 6

You don't fire one of the top 3 managers in history on a whim.

Answer 7

why is it  always the mangers fault?

it is not his fault his players are not healthy, and injured

he is one of the best mangers in baseball and i am not even a braves fan

Answer 8

are you kidding me? Bobby Cox is a great manager. do you know how many players are injured on that team??

examples:

Hudson

Jones

Moylan

Glavine

Smoltz

and others I can't think of. If the Braves had those players healthy and their other injured players healthy they would most def. be in the NL east race.

Answer 9

what kind of ignorant fool are you? this man brought them 15 straight division tiles and 4 world series appearances and no way braves fire a legend!!! you should be fired!!! from ever getting on yahoo again! ha! ha!

Answer 10

Why would they?  What can Bobby do, he is under the bus right now.  Their missing Smoltz, Glavine, Soriano, Hudson, Moylan, Diaz, Chipper, McCann, Yunel and Kotsay are both battling injuries.

Answer 11

Yeah, Fire him!

Answer 12

its not the manger who does anything the playas still have to perform if anything the braves gm should be fied for not getting the players hes also a firy guy

Answer 13

This is either a joke or you're the most uniformed person to ever post in the baseball section. Period.

Answer 14

haha you,cant be serious thats all im going to say

Answer 15

Aw shucks another injury....

CUT THE MAMNAGER!

That doesn't make any sense. A few bad years does nothing to tarnish the what? 14 division championships in a row? Cox basically has a life long contract. Let him revamp his rotation the next season or two, and the Braves will be scary yet again. They already have the veteran hitters, one more will make them solid.

Answer 16

You are very naive i mean its not his fault that all his players are injured-hudson, jones, mccann, moylan, kotsay, soriano, gonzalez, smoltz, glavine, hampton, etc.
