Oh I did...especially in the playoffs. In the WS against Toronto, he brought Mike Stanton in to throw one pitch...then pulled him. Tight game we ended up losing but he had a gut feeling. I never railed against him for one WS Championship with the most consecutively talented Braves team in my lifetime...but I had a reason.You and I remember Bobby Cox a lot differently. To me, he was like the Phil Fulmer of baseball. The main decisions I questioned were the conservative ones like too often giving up an out by bunting with a decent hitter, similar to Fulmer milking a small lead for multiple drives. Cox was always very superstitious. I don't remember questioning his personnel decisions often though.
