Wow. That's really all I have to say. Especially after 5 years of suckage. Just Wow.

I knew TB was going to have to trade Edwin or Sonnanstine during the off-season, and I kept saying they are going to trade Edwin even though they should trade Sonnanstine. Why couldn't they listen to my opinion!

I dont think you can really blame Tampa. Edwin was going to be making 4-5 times what Sonnanstine makes, and Sonny outperformed him last year. Edwin had the win total, but his other numbers were not very good, especially his advanced stats. That's why this season has been so incredible. Not only is he dominating in the traditional numbers, but his advanced stats back up his performance as the real deal. who knows how long it will continue, but I am sure enjoying the ride.

Do you still have the Elite 1/1 RC I sent your way a couple years back? That was a beauty.

This one?

Of course. My collection of him is pretty huge because his stuff was so cheap the last 4 years. From his 2003 rookie autos (his only 2 auto RC's), I have 13 regular donruss sigs, 3 of the ones #'d/21, 2 of the decades #'d/10. I have 9 of the Leaf Limited base (#d 99). 7 of the Spotlight (#d 50) and 2 of the ones #d 25. Add that to every other rc he has, plus other crap i accumulated over the years. Its funny because I'm at school right now and we have finals this week so I dont really have access to my cards, so even if i wanted to put them up I wouldnt be able to. It'll be tough when I get back ,though.

I picked up a few here and there this offseason. Thought he had a chance to have a very nice season.

What was even more impressive to me was he was throwing 99 MPH in the 9th!!! And everytime I watched him this year his control was fantastic.

It's nice to see him improving year by year with maturity.

EDIT: Not to mention he K'd the side in the 9th.

Shep :ugeek:
