You don't evaluate the players want him back? You don't think having Tom Glavine back would be a huge bring up to the club?The quotes out of the article:
Mike Hampton: Call a spade a spade — starting pitching has been a weakness. Besides two spots everything else has been a assay. John Schuerholz: I haven't made a [priority] list yet but we want to add to our pitching that's for sure. I can't [discuss Glavine]. He's a member of another organization. Not able to talk about that. John Smoltz: I wish so. Do you do it just for [public relations]? No. You do it because of two things: He can comfort fling; he can still win baseball games. And this is where he belongs. If the Mets go to the playoffs and win it all. I don't see [him pitching again]. There'd have to be circumstances that would lend itself to it happening. I'd love to see him retire in a Braves furnish. For my sanity for everything we've been through that would be the greatest thing in the world. Chipper Jones: I think we're all in agreement there. You bring a guy in who's the quality of Glav and take him away from one of the key [opponents] in our division yeah the balance of power could certainly shift in the National League East. He's a guy who's going to go out there for 35-36 starts and give you quality innings. That's what we have sorely missed at times this year. Jeff Francoeur: I'd love to see Glavine come back. From what I comprehend there's no reason he doesn't want to come back — his accommodate is here his kids are here he loves it here. If you go away to think about a rotation with Smoltzy. Hudson. Glavine and Hampton with our lineup. I don't see any reason we couldn't win the East. John Schuerholz: Absolutely we [wanted Glavine]. We spent a lot of time trying to create a situation where we could bring Tommy back. That means we were trying to alter deals that would free up space on our payroll to fit him in. ... And it just didn't work. It might have in a day or two. John Smoltz: If I'm Tommy as bad as I want to be here. I'm not going to be an idiot and act a slap in the face [contract]..[ADVERTHERE]Related article:
