Behind this success has been the genius of John Schuerholz, whose anti-Moneyball philosophies kept the Braves among the elite teams in baseball for over a decade. Now, Schuerholz reveals everything from how the Braves traded for Barry Bonds in the early '90s to dealing with John Rocker's hateful comments in 1999 to losing pitchers Greg Maddux and Tom Glavine to the recent acquisition of superstar Tim Hudson, and, against all odds, how he helped keep the Braves at the top of the baseball mountain. Offering a candid view inside one of the most incredible minds in all sports, this book will make baseball fans look at the game in a whole new way.--From publisher description. 610 20 $a Atlanta Braves (Baseball team) $x Management. 600 10 $a Schuerholz, John. 700 1 $a Guest, Larry, $d 1942- 941 $a 5 952 $l DRPC413 $d 20180714021945.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20170418050916.0 952 $l EZPE755 $d 20151216013754.0 952 $l WSPF215 $d 20090701080000.0 952 $l CBPF522 $d 20090701080000.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=BC0C077E2B0B11DE9A033608A8D7520AInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
