Toronto's Tom Tango concludes it is Tampa Bay's Evan Longoria, who will earn $950,000 this year as part of a $17.5 million six-year deal, is the best net value in baseball. "That's what happens when you are one of the best players in baseball, one of the youngest, and signed away all your (arbitration) years and a couple of free agency years at a discount." Tango was asked which player is the biggest net negative. "Pretty much any injured pitcher on a long-term contract," Tango wrote. "(San Francisco Giant pitcher) Barry Zito is also the standard-bearer among healthy players in terms of paying for more than you are getting."
