As I recall, Jimmy Austin wasn't too complimentary about Cobb either in GOTT.
The story I like about Cobb is that when DiMaggio's contract was purchased by New York, Cobb advised the kid to hold out for more money and ghosted his letters in response to the contracts Ed Barrow kept sending until Barrow sent a final contract with a note to tell Cobb to stop writing him letters.
