Turn that frown upside down.

Thursday, April 30th, 2009

Okay I don’t know if Spring is in the air or what but that was so hot.  Mister Garza was damn near perfect.  The team really needed a charge and boy did he deliver.  He even proved that Pedroia can’t hit the high inside fast ball.  If only Jacoby Ellsbury wasn’t so bloody fast…  Barty […]

So what’s it gonna be, reason or persuasion?

Wednesday, April 29th, 2009

At what point do we start to give the Rays some tough love?  It’s early, and we’ve been declaring our love daily hoping they will turn it around.  The talent is definitely there.  They can’t play like buttmunchs forever can they?  Can they?
I think we need Joe to practice his inner Piniella for a day […]

Ugh, the hurdle is getting higher.

Wednesday, April 29th, 2009

Honestly the Rays can’t expect to win games the way they played tonight.  Too many negative factors. 
Shields pitched a pretty good game, but he made two costly mistakes.  First he walks the batter right before he gives up a home run.  Negative.  Then he hits a batter to give them another free run.  Negative.  So […]

My favorite show

Tuesday, April 28th, 2009

Last night I finally got to sit down and enjoy my favorite show, the Tampa Bay Rays.  Now the show has gotten some pretty rough reviews lately, but I thought last night’s episode was excellent, a winner you might say.  It almost kept me entertained for the three hour duration, but alas I literally couldn’t […]

Focus on the Climb.

Monday, April 27th, 2009

Dear Rays,
I’m very sorry for my lack of focus these last couple of weeks.  I haven’t been a very good fan.  I always tend to check out during the west coast trips, and real life hasn’t made that any easier.
So tonight I will be renewing my commitment to the team.  I will be there through […]

Navi? Was ist los?

Thursday, April 23rd, 2009

Well this morning was pleasant after finding out the Rays finally won a game.  Then tonight’s game was a bummer, but not something to get upset about.  Two great pitchers did their thing.  Shields made one mistake early and that was all she wrote.  So all in all there’s not really much to get worked up about, but…
What’s […]

Okay now all together boys.

Wednesday, April 22nd, 2009

As most of you know I have the inability to stay awake for the west coast games.  I’m sorry but sleeping is something that I’m really good at, and I’m not so nice if I don’t get my fair share.
I did however watch the first part of the game.  There I saw some good pitching, […]

Charity Walk Confusion

Saturday, April 18th, 2009

I was trying to get the Rays pitchers to support my walk for charity, but some of them must have gotten confused.  I guess when I said the more you walk to the more money the charity gets, they thought the more batters you walk…? Ugh, not even funny.
The Rays walked ten batters.  Ten.  Your […]

Zobrist a Catalyst for Winning…

Friday, April 17th, 2009

and the winning is way more fun than the losing.
Someone needs to put it into writing.
The Tampa Bay Rays acknowledge that Benny Boo Boo Zobrist is the team’s official good luck charm.  With his new reddish beard, he even resembles an overgrown leprechaun.  He has a way of righting the ship.  Therefore as long […]

Time for some positive thoughts…

Friday, April 17th, 2009

It’s way too early in the season for me to be this negative.  I’m a positive person by nature, so even though the Rays have beaten themselves three times in a row now, I’m not going to fall into the negative abyss.  Although I admit it is harder this year since they have so much […]
