« Previous EntriesDisconnected…
Monday, June 29th, 2009When was the last time you were truly disconnected from the world? I mean no Internet, no TV, no Rays?
IT SUCKS! It is unbelievable that I survived, for four days. Some would argue that it was good for me, that I should relish the slower pace and learn to enjoy things more. To them I […]
Phucking A
Tuesday, June 23rd, 2009So Rays, you got that out of your system right? I mean if you’re gonna suck, might as well all suck on the same night.
From the beginning this game was extremely painful. Longo made an errant throw and Jimmy Rollins ended up on 2nd. Then Price walked Victorino. That’s when the hitting started, and I wasn’t […]
Shields Avoids the Long Ball Epidemic
Saturday, June 20th, 2009Since it was a day game with a rain delay, I did a kind of drive by viewing. However after the final pitch I let out a girly “Yay!” That’s what it’s come to in close games this year. It’s sort of suprising when the Rays find a way to win.
Know who I cheered the most […]
The Curious Case of Long Balls
Thursday, June 18th, 2009The last two starting pitchers for the Rays seem to have come down with a case of long balls. Not to be confused with blue balls. This is very serious, for pitchers long balls can be fatal.
David Price had a mild case on Wednesday. This was unsettling as it was presumed that he was immune. However at the end of […]
Rocky Mountain High
Wednesday, June 17th, 2009The Rays didn’t seem to have any problems with the altitude. Everybody was hitting and they easily put a stop to the Rockies hot streak. If someone could beat the stinkin Red Sox, the Rays might finally gain some ground!
Anyway that was a fun game, in that it seemed like a sure thing. What do […]
That’ll do Gabe…
Friday, June 12th, 2009That’ll do.
They’re Coming Back Folks…
Friday, June 12th, 2009Can you feel it?
Longo hit one out to straight away center. Welcome back O great one.
Pena is finding his way. Driving in four is hot!
Navi made some solid contact. Promising.
Brignac even got in on the action.
The bullpen didn’t allow a run. Did you hear that? The bullpen didn’t allow a run. Wahoo.
Pat the Bat is […]
Well It Wasn’t Pretty…
Thursday, June 11th, 2009but we’ll take it. Rays win!
There were a few positives:
Niemann did work his way out of trouble a couple of times, although 3.2 innings is the opposite of stellar.
The bullpen actually did what they are paid to do. Shocker, I know.
Carlos Pena looked way better. He even hit a home run to the opposite field. […]
Really Could Have Used a Win There…
Wednesday, June 10th, 2009Not only could the Rays use a win, but their fans could really use one. I don’t know about you but I’m getting all negative. I don’t like being negative. It’s against my nature.
So tonight I’ll try to focus on the positive. I’ll let you know what I find. Hopefully I won’t have to dig […]
Uncomfortable Viewing
Monday, June 8th, 2009All in all a split with the Yankees is not so bad right now. The Rays aren’t necessarily fielding their star players. You could even be pretty stoked about them beating CC Sabathia.
I can’t lie though, I am on edge watching the later part of these games. The bullpen is severely lowering the comfort level. I have […]
