Say what you will about the history of the Tampa Bay Rays, and there is some shoddy history, but they are doing a pretty good job of locking up some serious young talent. They took another step towards building an AL East contend-worthy team today too, as they locked up uber-stud prospect Evan Longoria for at least the next six years.

Rookie third baseman Evan Longoria and the Tampa Bay Rays agreed Friday to a $17.5 million, six-year contract, a deal that could be worth up to $44 million over nine seasons. Tampa Bay has a club option for 2014 and a second option that covers 2015 and 2016.
Taken third overall in the 2006 amateur draft, Longoria appeared in just six major league game before agreeing to the deal.

Great move by the Rays, it will look like a huge bargain during the last couple years of the deal.
