Frank Wren Addresses Media On Glavine

((HT: AJC/Bradley))



It was a grim and defensive Wren who faced the press, and sure enough the question arose: Given that John Smoltz was allowed to sign elsewhere and that Glavine has been cut, was he worried about appearances?

“Obviously you’re concerned about everything,” Wren said, “but at the end of the day fans want to win, to be in the playoff hunt … If we have to deal with the consequences of a public-relations backlash, that’s part of doing business.”

Then this: “My duty is to give the 25 players in that clubhouse the best chance to win and the best chance to be playing in October.”
