He's just not throwing strikes. He's throwing a lot of balls and when he does throw a strike, he's putting it right in hitters wheelhouse. Seems like him and CC have the same problem.

6 and a half hour game. :\
Pitchers must be dead after that one. Tigers vs. Jays series now. Let's go Jays!

And I thought the Mets game was long last night. Wish I could put money on the Rockies/Astros game today because the Rockies looked ready for sleep after the win.

Re: 08 MLB season discussion thread
22 innings in 6hrs and 16 mins, damn. Sounds like the Red Sox/Yanks '04 ALCS(14 innings 5hrs 50+ mins)

Longoria's deal with Rays could be worth up to $44 million
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. -- Rookie third baseman Evan Longoria and the Tampa Bay Rays agreed Friday to a $17.5 million, six-year contract, a deal that could be worth up to $44 million over nine seasons.
Tampa Bay has a club option for 2014 and a second option that covers 2015 and 2016.
Taken third overall in the 2006 amateur draft, Longoria appeared in just six major league game before agreeing to the deal.
The 22-year-old was brought up from Triple-A Durham last Saturday and made his big league debut that day. Because he was not on the major league roster for the first 13 days of the season, Longoria's eligibility for free agency was pushed back an extra year until after the 2014 season.
The Rays have signed a number of their younger players to long-term deals, including right-hander James Shields, and outfielders Carl Crawford and Rocco Baldelli.

Re: 08 MLB season discussion thread
The Reds really don't need to play the Brewers while slumping. And we don't need Arroyo pitching during a slump. I would almost trade Arroyo for a box of balls and two bats right about now.

Re: 08 MLB season discussion thread
The D-backs have historically owned Greg Maddux. The Padres played 2+ games yesterday and are probably tired. Dan Haren is on the mound. And Arizona is in first place. If they don't win tonight, I'm going to be upset.

They live and die at the whim of Ken Griffey, Jr.'s bat.
