Nice catch by Shysterball, about a minor controversy from Evan Longoria's Eva Longoria-filled interview with Big League Stew's Dave Brown earlier this month. It stemmed from this question, where Brown pithily asked who on the team should not sport a Rayhawk: Q: Who on this team should not have gotten a Mohawk, no matter how much a team guy he wanted to be? EL: Well, he still doesn't have one. Carlos [Pena]. And I told him not to. He asked me multiple times if he should get one. I just don't think he'll look good with it. He's the ...

His counterpart, Matt Garza, went 4-6, 4.53 on the road, and took it on the chin against the Red Averages, posting a 4.50 ERA in 4 starts. ...

Big League Stew —
It's been a bit crazy in the Stew today because not only did we pass a major milestone, we also happened to do it with one of our favorite youngsters. In case you missed it — and it seems that many of you did the first time around — Rays third baseman Evan Longoria made some kinda-strange comments about Carlos Pena and Dominicans in his interview with our Answer Man a few weeks ago. Though his remarks didn't cause any stir here in the United States, it seems as if they did back in the Dominican Republic and Longoria has gone ...
