"It seems like just when you think he's had a career year, he comes back and has a better one," said Glavine, who was 13-9 and did not receive any votes this season. "Maybe he'll leave some room for the rest of us to win one time."
Braves manager Bobby Cox said Maddux is getting better.
"Ive managed two machines since I've been managing in the major league, Glavine in 1991 and now this guy," he said. "Glavine was the same way in 1991. They remind me so much of each other."
Maddux was 20-10 with a 2.36 ERA in 1993, his first season with the Braves after signing a $28 million,
Braves' pitcher wins third Cy Young
Maddux, 16-6 with a 1.56 ERA for the Atlanta Braves during the strike-shortened 1994 season, yesterday became the first player to win the award three years in a row.
"I can imagine winning it three years in a row, but he's certainly put up the numbers to do it," said teammate Glavine, who won the award in 1991 before finishing second to Maddux in 1992 and third in 1993.

Maddux to get $750,000 despite lack of games
ATLANTA — Tom Glavine, the last pitcher to win the NL Cy Young Award before Greg Maddux swept the last three, wonders if he'll ever get another chance to capture the prize.
The extra paycheck did not bother Braves general manager John Schuerholz.
By winning the award, Maddux received a $750,000 bonus. His contract called for him to receive $250,000 for winning the award in 1994 and another $500,000 for capturing it twice within the five years of his contract.
five-year contract as a free agent. The year before he was 20-11 with a 2.18 ERA with the Chicago Cubs as he won his first Cv Young Award.
“It’s very exciting,” said Maddux from his home in Las Vegas. “You always set goals. To win the Cy Young, or win three of them, was never really a goal. It’s always something you try to attain, but you try to make goals that are a little more attainable.
"I think it's spectacular. There is no more deserving pitcher in all of baseball," he said.
Cox said Maddux had pinpoint accuracy with his pitches.
"He's just got a great assortment of pitches and a computer could never figure him out with what's coming next," he said.
As for paying the money, Schuerholzsaid, "So what? When we put that clause in, we were hoping it would happen. If a guy wins the Cy Young Award, your team usually wins the pennant."
The Braves were six games behind Montreal in the NL East when the strike ended the season on Aug. 12.
Atlanta, however, had the second-best record in the league behind the Expos and would have been eligible for the postseason as a wild-card entry had it continued at that pace.

Last month, Schuerholz had said he didn't think individual awards should be given out in a strike-shortened season when there were no pennant winners, nor a World Series champion.
"He's deserving of the honor," Schuerhoff said. "We'll pay him gladly. That comment was about the strike and the impact of the strike. It had nothing to do with Greg Maddux individually."

Players sue NBA over reduced salary cap
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Two players sued the NBA yesterday, saying the league's salary cap was artificially reduced this season by $2.75 million a team.

The suit was filed in federal court in Newark, N.J., by Golden State's David Wood and Minnesota's Howard Eisley.

The players are seeking an increase in the salary cap of approximately $2.75 million a team to account for the $74 million allegedly kept by the league. The cap was set at $15,964 million for the 1994-95 season.
erly go back to team owners.
The lawsuit contends the NBA lowered the players' share of revenues by some $74 million, anticipating a contribution to a players' prepenishment benefit plan. But the plan was terminated by the union last June, so the suit alleges the money would improp-
The prepension benefit plan was established in 1990 to provide income to NBA players after they quit playing but before their pensions begin paying them. A court gave the union the right to terminate the plan, said Jeffrey Kessler, who represents Wood and Eisley.
NBA representative Brian McIntyre said the league had not yet seen the lawsuit and would have no comment.
Kessler said. "It's another effort to pressure the players into a new collective bargaining agreement that they don't want."
"What the NBA is doing is utterly ludicrous, and I believe they're aware that what they're doing is not right,"
The NBA has been without a labor agreement since June. The players want to abolish the salary cap while team owners want to preserve the status quo.
Special rates for graduating seniors! Absolutely NO joining fee!
Kessler said Wood and Eisley filed the suit because both were told by their teams that because of salary-cap limitations they would have to sign contracts for the league's minimum salary.
