Another Season in the Books.
Tuesday, October 6th, 2009The Tampa Bay Rays 2009 season is now in the books, and it is quite a collection of stories.
Beloved main characters were lost. Rocco Baldelli defected to enemy territory. Jonny Gomes found success in a different city, and Scott Kazmir headed to LA to try to become a star.
The team’s story got off to a […]
Turn that frown upside down.

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 […]
Her Rays Season Preview
Thursday, April 2nd, 2009First the disclaimer. Remember where you’re at. This is a female fan’s perspective. It is not always rational or spot on like Rays Index. It will not appeal to your mathematical side with pretty graphs like DRaysBay. Nor will it remain eternally optimistic ala Mr. Chalk. The reason being, girls rely way more on their emotions.
You […]
I need to get over you. I’d appreciate if you’d let me try…
Wednesday, January 21st, 2009This…
is not helping. Really, was a kleenex inducing ad necessary? You look way too cute in the picture and what’s with all the niceness? This would be way easier if you would just say “later sucka.” Just go be with your new buds. You can dance with Papelbon, hunt with Beckett, use Pedroia’s head as an […]
He’s gone.
Thursday, January 8th, 2009I knew it was likely. I knew it could happen. It did, and it still shocked me. Rocco Baldelli is no longer a Tampa Bay Ray. The guy who made me the Rays fan I am today is not coming back. Not only is he not coming back, he’s going to Boston. Ugh!
Yeah so it’s […]
Pleasantly Surprised
Sunday, December 14th, 2008Once again the Rays front office proved why they make the big bucks, and we just sit in our mom’s basement typing in our pajamas. Many different names were being thrown around to fill the Rays right field spot, but none of them were Matt Joyce. I think this is a brilliant move.
I must wish […]
Winter Meeting Ramblings and Gamblings
Monday, December 8th, 2008CharlieRay says it’s time for an update. I agree, but there’s not much to talk about.
The winter meetings start today and hopefully the Rays will make a move that will improve the team and keep yours truly happy. No easy feat let me tell you. The meetings are in Las Vegas. Most people get a […]
Rays as Leading Men - Rocco Baldelli and Jason Bartlett
Tuesday, November 18th, 2008Movie - Sweet Home Alabama
Jason Bartlett - Andrew Hennings
Rocco Baldelli - Jake Perry
Originally played by Patrick Dempsey and Josh Lucas
Rocco shares many similarities with Jake. For one, he’s got those rugged good looks. It got a little too rugged this year, but we’ll let that slide. Secondly like Jake is to Melanie, Rocco is my […]
Use Gold Glove When Picking thru Trade Rumblings
Sunday, November 9th, 2008Big Hugs for Carlos Pena!
Congrats go out to him for winning the Gold Glove. He played an awesome first base this year, and it’s great to see him get recognized for it.
The front office didn’t make any moves this week, but there were a few rumblings out there about the Rays. A couple of teams are […]
Would the Real Rays Please Stand Up.
Monday, October 27th, 2008I can handle the Rays losing. As long as they are playing good, but last night they blew. Seriously, they blew chunks.
First of all it’s not always Sonny in Philadelphia. I think Rays fans everywhere knew trouble was brewing when Sonny came out and couldn’t throw strikes. Sonny always throws strikes, ugh.
Then there’s the Rays who can’t […]
