I guess I was determined to use the word 'round'. I'm sure it's not the first time Zito has pitched on a hot day. Listen, we can always make excuses for Zito and maybe the heat did have something to do with it, but he's been doing it -- walking hitters -- all year long, heat or not. Good information on Perez, I've been reading that he's 22 right now but has some tools. It's hard to get a read on guys like him but as a 13th round pick, we could do worse.

Otherwise, great information, thanks. About Zito, give him a break about the length of his outing, the weather and heat was murder from what I've read about the series this weekend. About Perez, there are some good information on him in this article: http://www.nydailynews.com/sports/hschool/2007/10/09/2007-10-09_almonte_perez_take_juco_route_in_pursuit.html Explains his two years away, not exactly no baseball, he was at the Play Baseball Academy in Miami part of that time, just no organized team, other than local baseball teams. Just a nit to pick: it is the second day, not the second round.

Otherwise, great information, thanks.
