Yeah. Those guys have the ability to say "fuck it" and start the clocks. That just isn't Tampa's bag. They know they probably have limited time with a top flight guy so they need to get the most out of him.

I know they got a great deal on Longoria, but have they been able to keep anyone else they wanted to? They trade Price this year too, right?
