Braves release Tom Glavine

Tom Glavine's second go-round with Atlanta ended in abrupt, businesslike fashion, which is perhaps appropriate for a player who, as the Braves' player representative during the acrimonious negotiations that led to the 1994 strike, knows better than most the business side of the game.

Glavine, the winningest active pitcher with 305 victories, was due a $1 million roster bonus upon his activation from a rehab assignment. But the Braves insisted their decision was strictly based on his performance after watching his three rehab starts in the minors.

Please, cardinals, do not try to pick him up. We don't want another hurt pitcher.
