Bobby Cox Likely to Retire after 2008

Bobby Cox says he may only manage the Braves two more seasons.

 

Link.

 

"I feel great. I still love it," Cox said after a spring training game. "But there comes a time when you have to think about doing something else."

 

What that is, Cox has no idea. He stressed that he's merely considering his options and hasn't decided for sure to walk away from the game after the 2008 season.

 

"There's nothing definite," he said. "If I make up my mind to do it, that will be it. It doesn't matter how well we do these next two years."

Well he has been there for like 45 years. Or so it seems.

Is there someone on the Cubs coaching staff that is likely to go to Atlanta to replace him?

My guess is that Pendleton is being groomed to replace him.
