Bobby Cox

Bobby Cox is one of those managers you just had to respect even if your team was on the wrong end of his lineups — the guy turned the Atlanta Braves into a dynasty and made it look almost routine. Fourteen consecutive division titles from 1991 to 2005 is a number that still doesn't feel real, and he did it while developing players, keeping a clubhouse together, and somehow never losing the trust of his guys. He managed with this calm, no-nonsense intensity that made everyone around him better, and his record of six 100-win seasons ties him with Joe McCarthy for the all-time mark. Getting himself ejected 158 times is almost a badge of honor — he stood up for his players and never apologized for it. Hall of Fame in 2014 was absolutely deserved, no debate.
