Bruce was waived by Sparky Anderson and then ranted:
 BM> Maddux in a walkover with his low ERA" and now that someone else but a
 BM> Brave has a better ERA then, let's change the rules.
Terry isn't trying to change the rules, Bruce, he's giving you the business 
for the way that YOU change them. Maddux was hands down, the MOST dominant 
pitcher that year and the difference between his ERA and Hill's was 1.76 
(3.32 for Hill, 1.56 for Maddux). The difference between Martinez and Maddux 
is .53 (1.78 vs 2.31). There's no comparison: the argument between Maddux and 
Martinez is far different than Maddux vs Hill. Hill didn't deserve even ONE 
vote for the Cy Young. He got 16 wins because Montreal scored a lot of runs 
for him that year (BTW, Maddux has ranked LAST on the Braves in run support 
EVERY year that he's been with the team).
