John Smoltz Will Miss Sunday's Start

Atlanta Braves starting pitcher John Smoltz will miss his scheduled start on Sunday due to soreness in his right shoulder. He complained about the shoulder after his May 29th start at Milwaukee, but came back to post a fine performance his next start against the Marlins. Apparently it's flared up on him again, but this doesn't appear to be serious at the current time. A shoulder problem for a 40 year old starter is cause for concern, but the Braves and Smoltz are both smart and will likely do the right thing.

Fantasy Impact: Nothing too big for now as he's slated to start Friday instead.
