I hope you're right, but Smoltz is a heck of a pitcher, old or not. Glavine could easily give our team fits. I don't have a lot of faith in Hampton after all those years of injuries, but Hudson is a stud. I would be careful about saying that we won't be over matched by their pitching.

I can't see them any better than .500 this season. The Braves pitching is just OLD. I can’t see them any better than .500 this season.

Is there any chance Glavine will be the opening day starter, b/c I'm most likely going to that game (in DC against the Nats), and I would LOVE to be the amongst the first Met fans to get to boo Glavine this season. On a slightly related note: I work on Capitol Hill and my office just got a tour of the Nats new ballpark....it is really nice. Definitely looks like it's gonna be a bit of a hitter's park, so if you're in fantasy leagues that haven't drafted yet, look into guys like Zimmerman, whose numbers I expect to skyrocket. Being there today makes me SO excited for next season. New ballparks are the best. I’m assuming Hudson is gonna be their opening day starter, but is that a definite?

Hampton, Glavine. Hopefully they are done. Braves pitching staff looks real good on paper but you ahve to wonder if these guys are all over the hill and injured. eg. Hampton, Glavine.
