BMF to have MRI

When it comes to injured Braves, expect the worst. As the soreness in BMF's elbow lingered, I assumed a lengthy stay on the DL, if not season-ending surgery, loomed. Looks like it'll be one or the other, as Soriano has an appointment Wednesday with a Braves team doctor.

Oh yeah, and Gonzo had a "minor setback" this week in Florida. Braves officials say not to worry, but that's what they said about BMF.

Once again, the burden will fall on Smoltz. He can handle it, but can his shoulder?
