Eyre exercises option

From Rotoworld.com http://www.rotoworld.com/content/playerpages/player_main.aspx?sport=MLB&id=2455 :

"While the Cubs never announced it, Scott Eyre exercised his player option for 2008.

Eyre will make $4 million for a second straight season. He went from a 6.60 ERA before the break to a 0.81 mark afterwards last season, but he apparently still didn't think he'd get a J.C. Romero-type deal as a free agent."

That was pretty much a no brainer
 Hopefully he can pitch more consistently next season and more like the Eyre of the 2nd half. When he's pitching well, he's a great option for that pen.

stevie eyre
hopefully he figures out whatever it is he needs to figure out.  looking at his career numbers his era's and whip are absolutely all over the place, and the first/second half era this year is almost unthinkable.  hopefully scotty can get off to a good start this year and not look back.
Kevin Hart Watch: IP: 11 K: 13 ERA: 0.82 WHIP: 1.00 K/BB: 3.25 a productive farm system is a wonderful thing.

Me too!
I got tired of exercising my sphincter muscle everytime he walked out to the mound last year.
