Soriano To Pitch Tomorrow
Posted by: Aaron Hanks in Atlanta Braves, tags: John Smoltz, Rafael SorianoWe’ve known all week that Rafael Soriano was scheduled to appear at some point, but now we know for sure, that it’ll be Saturday. Dave O’Brien wrote on his blog today that Smoltz and Soriano will make their spring debuts together, tomorrow.
Speaking of tomorrow, we have a Rafael Soriano appearance on the docket. Yes, release the pigeons, for the Braves closer is set to make his Grapefruit League debut tomorrow. He’s not pitched all spring because of a sore elbow (and a stomach virus of some kind).
That means Soriano and Smoltz will likely make their spring debuts in the same game, assuming Soriano pitches in the home split-squad game vs. Tampa Bay instead of the road game against Houston. (Jair Jurrjens is scheduled to start against the ‘Stros.)
