Would you guys want him? He has been pretty bad but would you guys want to take a flier on him if the sox pay his salary?

No thanks. The man is not what he used to be and is getting shelled.

He's done. I think we would be better served by having Cody go out there every 5th day.

off topic, but you should change your sig, that is quite wierd

LOL I SECOND THAT...is GAY

He did pitch one game.

no way he cant get lefties out

At this point I'd take a flag on anyone. While we are at it let's give Tom Glavine a call too, hey what is Steve Avery doing these days?

He was making a reference to that...

 

and no thanks to Smoltz.

Smoltz? John? A Marlin?

 

 

psh never.

 

probably gonna crawl back to the braves some how

Tommy Hanson is there, they had no space for a more MLB ready Glavine, why would they add Smoltz?

im just saying man, he'll call them. see whats up.

 

but i dont know if any team is going to want to pick him up

April Fools right? The only way John Smoltz ends up on the Marlins is if he thows batting practice for free.

i would go out to see that

Well, I suppose the team could use somebody to clean the clubhouse after everyone is done showering and getting dressed. Do you guys think Smoltz will work for $9/hour?

I say he stops embarrassing himself he is a Hall Of Famer, and doesn't have anything else to prove, PLUS he has a ring, call it quits, call it a career dude.

NOOOO!!!!

 

He needs to sign with one of our rivals and continue sucking with them.

that works too, how about the Phillies who like picking up all the Pedro's in the league

Wasn't smoltz an elite closer at one point 3 years ago. I'd say give him a shot in the Bullpen as the CL--move Lindstrom down to Setup.

 

He can be useful, but we would need to find where he's best suited these days.

Yes, he was an elite closer. But the big reason he was that dominant was that his fastball was in the 97 MPH+ range, and his off speed pitches had some nice bite on them. Now, at the age of 42, that fastball stays at the 89 to 93 range, and he he doesn't have the same "stuff" he used to. He just doesn't have what he used to. It comes with age, some players just have to admit when they are done, and Smoltz just doesn't have anything left in the tank sadly.

He was released for a reason...

Wouldn't Smoltz make the minimum for the rest of the year, with whoever he signs with?

If that's the case...why not? Is he really that much worse than VandenHurk/5th starter who has no name right now?

How about Smoltz as a reliever?

He had a lots of experience as a closer.

 

I think he's better than Luis Ayala, obviously.

vicente padilla just dfa's!!! id take him over any 5th starter wed throw out there in a hearbeat. please try to get him

Vicente Padilla? WHY? Did we not batter him enough with the Phillies? I'd rather see him on an opponents squad, now that says alot!
