Ex-Mets: Tom Glavine released by Braves

Ex-New York Met, longtime Atlanta Brave and future Hall of Famer Tom Glavine has been released by the Braves, according to major league sources.

Via FOX Sports:

The Braves told Glavine that he was being released because his velocity is down, one source said. However, Glavine was throwing only 76-78 miles per hour in spring training and in recent starts had increased that to 83-86 miles per hour.

"I don't know what else I can do," Glavine said after Tuesday night's game, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. "Physically I felt good and I feel like I'm ready.

Think he’d pitch better than Tim Redding?  Just kidding!

…Or am I?
