Only a few on the market, you guys should snatch him up while you can. His price will only rise!

I sold him last week because I don’t like Maddux. If I’m not having the full contingent, I’m not having any of them. I actually liked Glavine quite a lot, he’s underrated. His 4 seam hits 97mph and the rest of his pitches break a lot. If you mix it up he’s a very serviceable 5th piece for the backend of your rotation. That said, I couldn’t justify having 400k in him really, even if I don’t need the stubs. Unless you’re a specific fan of Glavine or 90s baseball players, you could easily use one of the juiced versions of Max Fried and have a very similar pitching experience at a fraction of the cost.

I really wanted the Big 3, so I was glad to get him. I think I'm not pitching right with him, gonna give him a few more starts.

Try and pitch inside as well as outside to righties and outside mostly to lefties with the odd 4 seam or sinker in. When I fell into a pattern of throwing sinkers, change ups and fastballs all down and away to right handed batters, he ended up getting hit around pretty good. If you’re brave enough to drill the fastball inside to the opposite handed batters as well as the slider, it sets up the off speed below the zone for a swing and a miss a lot better then trying to nibble the outside corners all the time.

I want to get him, is he worth the stubs vs other lefties i got for free?

I've been awful with him, really let down on how he plays. Maybe it is user error, but I do better with Smoltz.

How many you selling? Also, I read that you were selling Glavine for Chipper on another thread.

Yeah, just made this as a joke. I only have 1, so if the 4 on the market were gone I can list him for 1 milllion. Like anyone would pay that though, lol.
