Think with your head, Josh

Josh Fogg has signed a one year, $450,000 contract to go pitch where pitchers go to die, Coors Field. Last year Fogg seemed to have a problem with the long ball (27 in only 169 innings), going to Colorado won't help that. I'm sad to see Fogg make this decision, he was a guy that I always liked in Pittsburgh and seemed to be a serviceable 4th or 5th starter before last year. He chose the Rockies over Washington, San Francisco, and Cincy, presumably thinking he had a better chance of making their rotation, though he's probably best suited to pitch somewhere like RFK with a giant outfield. If he repeats the problems he had last year in Colorado, his career will be over.

Anyways, here's the Rockies blog Bad Altitude (who's going into the sidebar) on the signing.
