Bobby Cox is elected to the Hall of Fame along with Joe Torre and Tony Larussa, it's just been announced. Don't forget that Torre won the 1982 western Division title as braves' manager, setting the MLB record with 13 straight wins to start that season. Torre was also one of the original Atlanta braves as a player.

If Glavine and Maddux follow in January, and Chipper Jones and Smoltz later, the Atlanta Braves will have 6 HOF inductees, with 5 of those coming from the 1991-2005 streak of division titles. Compare with the Yankees of the 1950's, with five HOF inductees, unless I've forgotten one:Mantle, Berra, Ford, DiMaggio, and Stengel.
