Can anybody say overpaid?

One thing I always wondered, what is the correct spelling, de la Rosa or De La Rosa? :)

I believe it's the latter.

"One thing I always wondered, what is the correct spelling, de la Rosa or De La Rosa?"
Should be all simple letters. Sort of like when you title articles and the sort. "De" means "of" and "la" means "the" in the feminine. Generally, having descriptive articles in front of words in Latin-based languages denotes some sort of nobility in the person's ancestry.
"Can anybody say overpaid?"
Not in today's market for a 5th starter.

Textbook overhyped Red Sox prospect. I remember Gammons talking him up incessantly as the Sox were trying to trade him. Was terrible in his stint in Milwaukee - Yost wouldn't even let him mop up later on, preferring Turnbow. DFA'd by the Royals of all teams in-season last year - had a suprising run. Any chance at all he does not implode this year?

If it makes any difference to you guys, Jorge was super hot in August and September going, 5-2, 2.47era, 27bb, 50k, 1.24whip, 7.73k/9 in 58.2IP.
Not to mention that his post All-Star expected era (Xera) was a very tidy 3.05!
Can he keep it up? I think he can.
