John Smoltz. Starter or Closer, it doesnt matter. This man was dominating in the mlb my whole life. Suddenly age caught up with him and after becoming a bust in Boston he was back on the Free Agent market. Out of no where my favorite team, the St. Louis Cardinals, sign him. I didn't know what to think of this at first. I mean he was great but he is now 42 and i dont know how good he still will be. But the cardinals dont really have that 5th pitcher in the rotation. Recently we have just been changing between a few young guys, but its not working so great. I hope that he still has some gas left and can provide another good pitcher that will give us a chance at winning the world series. Im all for Smoltz and think that this was a great move by Tony La Russa. Smoltz seems like a nice down to earth guy that will try his best no matter what, and thats the type of player I like. And I mean the man does have a Cy Young and those are pretty hard to get. "Chris is 13-3 and is leading in ERA, HE BETTER GET IT" but anyways he will be getting his first start against San Diego and I cant wait to watch.
