Pick the Braves' rotation

Who should be Atlanta's starters in 2009?


No more John Smoltz. Tim Hudson is most likely out for the 2009 season with Tommy John ligament transplant surgery on his pitching elbow and Tom Glavine's future with the Braves is uncertain. With new starter Javier Vazquez and the possible addition of sinker-ball specialist Derek Lowe, the club's rotation needs some help. So put on your cap and make some decisions.
