Who replaces him? Larusa?

NEW YORK — The Atlanta Braves say Bobby Cox will retire as manager after the 2010 season.

The team says Cox agreed to a one-year contract extension for 2010, then will start a five-year consulting agreement to advise the team in baseball operations.

Cox managed the Braves from 1978-81, switched to manage the Toronto Blue Jays from 1982-85, then returned to manage Atlanta in 1990.

He wants to devote more time to beating his wife.

I loved the nights when an NBC broadcast featured Bange, Moane, and Sack. All that was missing was the redundantly named Dick Johnson.

Here's my question...Will Bobby Cox be Hall-of-Fame bound...as a manager? Yeah, the Braves have only 1 World Series title, but 14 straight division titles since Cox started filling out the lineup card at the ballpark named after the man who colorized "Casablanca" on his TBS Superstation many years ago and should've been named after Hank Aaron...
