Wow!

You guys need another starter?

If I were Dayton Moore, I'd bring him in.

If he's healthy, he can still pitch.

Glavine would be an idiot to sign with us, plenty of other teams will want him im sure

Agree completely.

But if I'm Glavine, I'm not even picking up the phone to answer his call.

I watched him make a rehab start about 2 weeks ago with triple A Gwinnett Braves. His fastball was a scorching 82mph, he looked awful. I figured I saw the last time he'd ever pitch.

I think his 1 mil bonus had a lot to do with it.

It's sad to see him go but I don't want him or Smoltz to pitch this season, so both can go in the same time as Maddux...

I wouldn't pay $1M to a guy that throws as hard as a 12 year old either.

If I were Dayton Moore, I would find some bats.

Glavine can hit better than most of the Royals. Put him in the field.
