The Braves have placed righty starter John Smoltz on the 15-day disabled list with a severely inflamed biceps tendon and a inflamed rotator cuff. This is horrible news for the Braves as Smoltz was outstanding so far this season. Smoltz has started 5 games for the Braves this season and he is 3-2 with a 2.00 ERA and a 1.11 WHIP. Smoltz has whiffed 36 batters in only 27 innings this season which shows how nasty his stuff has been this year. The Braves have activated Tom Glavine off the D.L. to replace Smoltz on the roster and in the rotation.
