ATLANTA -- While Major League Baseball awaits word whether Cuba will be allowed to play in the World Baseball Classic, Atlanta pitcher John Smoltz says he probably won't be pitching for the United States in the tournament.
Smoltz was quoted as saying in Tuesday's editions of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution that he's not likely to play.
"We all have concerns; everybody does," Braves general manager John Schuerholz said Tuesday.
