The suspension not only finishes his season, but it will cost him the first month of 2008.
Houser, a 2003 second-round pick, came back from elbow problems in 2005 and emerged as a decent prospect last year.
He was 5-4 with a 3.65 ERA, 88 H and 90/39 K/BB in 103 2/3 IP for Double-A Montgomery this season.
Prior to this, he looked like he could develop into a fourth of fifth starter for Tampa Bay.
