It doesn't matter. He will get plenty of rest watching the Rays play the Phillies in the big show. No free furniture for the people who thought it was a lock.

you're right MikeyP, I have a lot of respect for what he has over come. He would look good in pinstrips.

Homerun derby ???
The guy had a bad outing, no more, no less.
Take a look at Lesters story, the odds he has overcome, his great attitude, and his amazing record(last nights game included), and you might see things differently.
I'll take my chances with Lester any day.
I'll take Lester
