08:09 AM ET 08.16 | When Tom Glavine left Thursday's loss to Cubs after giving up seven runs in four innings, he might as well have handed a baton with "Braves pitching" on it to Jair Jurrjens, who started Friday night's series opener against the Giants. Because it sure felt like a changing-of-the-guard moment to me. Oh, sure, plenty of signs before this indicated that Glavine was probably done, that he might not have enough left in that arm to finesse his way to more wins to add to career total of 305. But long-time observers have learned not to completely count out these wily old dudes -- Glavine, Smoltz, Maddux -- until they're officially done.
