The Braves resigned John Smoltz for 3 years. Several teams offered for him to start for them but I guess he liked the Braves proposal better. Looks like he'll keep his role as closer.

Good news for the Braves. If they can get him to be happy with his closing position, they can be dangerous. I like Smoltz as a closer.

Well, he made the right choice. Who wants to be a Yankee, anyway?!

I'm guessing he'd start for the Yankees if he went there right?

Are you comparing Armando Benitez to Mariano Rivera?
