I'm not disagreeing, I'm just curious how far you'd go with this statement.

Obviously he had Maddux, Glavine and Smoltz in his rotation for years (and was a blessed man for that), but who else did he really "put out"?

Steve Avery was a fantastic pitcher for a few years, but if anything, Cox pitched him into the ground at a very young age and ended his career way prematurely. I guess Millwood was alright for a while... I can't think of anyone else.
