Not a bad thought, but a gamble as he got hit pretty good in the AL last season. Smoltz did look pretty good with his stuff, in my opinion, though late last season and for one inning... could maybe still bring it.

Smoltz could be a good pick up, but he might be a bit pricey. He wants to start again, though.
