I’m going to spare you the Will Smith references from the entertainment world since we’re sure to read and hear about a thousand of them between now and Spring Training.
But what I will tell you is that Alex Anthopolous was not going to wait for the free agent markets to take shape. He acted before everyone, and now the Braves have the best back-end of their bullpen since the days of Craig Kimbrel, Jonny Venters, and Eric O’Flaherty. And with the money being committed to Mark Melancon, Shane Greene, and now Will Smith, it had better be a really good bullpen.
