Good for him!
Smoltz is a likable guy and may have what it takes to keep this gig long term. But there will always be fresh candidates, so it wouldn’t be smart to antagonize his corporate bosses by signing then going back to play mid-season.
Smart career move, I’d say.

Peachtree TV and/or FSN South/SportsSouth needs to sign him NOW for Braves telecasts. From the brief time he’s spent in the booth, he’s fantastic, and would work very well with Joe Simpson (Chip Caray notwithstanding).
Great career, Smoltzy. My only wish is that you’d done it a year earlier so that you would’ve retired a Brave and gone to the HOF with Glavine and Maddux.

I was hoping he would come back. I still do, he’s too good to retire yet. There’s a guy that can still help a ball club.

man the mets are really screwed.

Damn man….I don’t know why the Cards won’t sign him.

Smoltz should join the MLB Network when he hangs them up.

Good move.
I hate to see a guy I admire stick around longer than he should.
redsandyanksfan
he showed he is still more than capable of still pitching when he was with the cardinals, so i think that if a team comes at him hard enough mid season he just might sign but he is suited for national league

Real real real shame he left the braves last yr to go with the sox/cards for that one year.. should have been a Brave for life.. you never see players anymore stick with just one team.. Im a yankee fan but Im also a Baseball Fan.. would have liked to see him with the braves his whole career.

A Yankee and a baseball fan?? Ohh the irony…
Smoltz was great and wasn’t too bad last year, hopefully he still tries to sign.
Ferrariman
the braves left him, he didn’t leave the braves.

He might have one year in the minor league left in him i.e. National League.
