But are there enough fans to get him to the All-Star game?
3. Evan Longoria – Did you know Dirtbag is still looking for his first hit of the year? There is some fear that the rest of the bats will ease up with the return of Longoria. But that just doesn’t seem like something Joe Maddon would let happen. And even if Longoria is rusty, he will still be better than what has been at third base in recent weeks.
4. Matt Joyce – The prettiest swing on the Rays. Joyce hit his first two home runs of the season this week and looks like he is heating up in the face up regular playing time. ‘BOUT. DAMN. TIME.

It is by far, the least scientific thing we do on this site…
