Well Braves fans the countdown for 400 is slowing to a Crawl. Greg was injured for a couple weeks and he seems to be struggling game in and game out. He is no longer dominating baseball, but just seemingly avg out there. He is currently 9-8 with a ballooning ERA of 3.24. Currently Greg is 10 wins away from reaching the 400 win milestone. Some in the organization are concerned the skipper is a little too focused on trying to get Greg to that mark, much as he was a few seasons back when he tried to get Don The Caveman Robinson to the 300 mark.
Off the field, Maddux is known for being a quiet and unassuming person. He is known to be very focused on his craft and will spend hours studying the habits and tendencies of opposing batters. He is also known for being a hard worker and for his attention to detail.
Maddux is a family man who is married to his wife, Kathy. They have two children together. He is also involved in various charitable organizations and is known for his generosity.
Greg is a professional baseball player who is widely regarded as one of the greatest pitchers of all time. He was born on April 14, 1966, in San Angelo, Texas.
Based on his living in Texas, when he finally retires from baseball, there have been rumors a couple teams want him to stay involved in the sport as a pitching coach for the Texas Rangers or as a special assistant to the general manager for the Braves.

That’s twelve all star appearances, five Cy Youngs, four world series rings, four no hitters, and four gold gloves. Wow Don’t think I have ever seen a pitcher with so many gold gloves! There is no doubt that he will be elected to the Hall of Fame when he finally retires, the question is, will he get to 400? What will the future hold for Greg?
