The trop is sold out for the 3rd straight year.
Tonight is Matt Garza (0-0, 8.40) vs Eric Bedard (0-0, 1.80)
Wednesday: Mariners (Jarrod Washburn, 0-1, 5.40) at Rays (Andy Sonnanstine, 1-0, 6.00), 7:10 p.m. ET

Garza strains his radial nerve in his throwing arm.
Sounds like he's going to the DL.

First Kazmir & now Garza
Does Niemann get the call if Garza hits the DL?

That or JP Howell gets a run at it if Garza isn't out too long.
I hope it's Niemann though.

It's only to help out in the bullpen temporarily I heard on the radio.
If Garza is out a month (likely), Niemann will get his shot in the rotation.
Kazmir threw 40+ pitches in batting practice. All is AOK.
He probably will get a couple of low minors starts before joining the rotation (end of April).

Jackson was outstanding today.
8 2 0 0 4 6.
Rays win 7-0. Miller pitched the 9th.
Ed'Win" Jackson is virtually unhittable when he is on. Jackson gets stronger as the game wears on......throwing 98 mph last inning.

I cannot believe that Edwin Jackson is, right now, our best pitcher statistically. Twilight Zone anyone

I saw glimpses of this coming last summer.
Now, if he can only maintain it.
