"He hasn't lost a game he's started," Smoltz said of McCann. "I can't say enough about the way he handles himself in a game, the way he goes about his job."
"He's been great," said Smoltz of Francoeur. "Offensively, we knew he had some pop in his bat. Defensively, he's been a Hoover machine out there, picking up everything. You can tell he's going to be some kind of player real soon."
