    I bet no one wanted that done.

    If the Devil Rays are being smart then they already know that giving a pitcher anyting longer than a three year deal is pretty much stupid. The most I'd ever give a pitcher is four and that fourth year would be an option. A Team Option.

    Also, I doubt Kazmir would sign a long term deal when he knows that he'll get that magical seven year deal when he's done with this deal and it'll be for 100 million. Someone out there will give it to him and it'll probably end up being a great deal.

    For me, no matter how many times those deals end up being good, I'll never be convinced that they'll ever be any good.
    "It may well be that we spectators, who are not divinely gifted as athletes, are the only ones able to truly see, articulate and animate the experience of the gift we are denied. And that those who receive and act out the gift of athletic genius must, perforce, be blind and dumb about it -- and not because blindness and dumbness are the price of the gift, but because they are its essence." - David Foster Wallace

        Every stadium has BYOB and free parking if you know what you're doing

        I bring my own alcohol with me to Busch every game I go to and park free, I'm a rebel though.
