Game 131 - Blue Jays vs. Rays
Thursday, August 28th, 2008Mr. Maddon’s outfield traffic laws.
Red - Carl Crawford. Stop. Do not proceed until you have a note from your doctor.
Yellow - Rocco Baldelli. Caution. Approach the fly balls with caution. Please do not go balls out all the time. Do not break yourself.
Green - Justin Ruggiano. Throw caution to the wind. No more being safe. […]
Game 126 - Angels vs. Rays
Wednesday, August 20th, 2008Huh? They lost.
The Rays won the series, but lost the final game tonight. LA 5 - Tampa 4. A lot of blame could be thrown around, but basically the Rays didn’t play a very clean game so they got beat.
They seemed to have the momentum going their way after they tied it up in the […]
Game 120 - Rays vs. A’s
Thursday, August 14th, 2008Bloody hell mates, what you got against Texas?
It sure seemed like the Rays were doing anything they could to avoid finishing this game and heading to Texas. Somebody should have called time-out to bribe the boys with promises of big Texas sized steaks and beer and women if that’s what it takes. I missed the […]
On the Down Low
Tuesday, August 12th, 2008I’m sure you’ve heard by now. Longo is joining Carl on the DL. This sucks hard. It’s a big fat bummer folks. However if you’re feeling low, you’ve come to the right place, because this girl is an optimist.
This is not to say that we won’t miss these boys. My love for them is well […]
Game 70 - Cubs vs. Rays
Tuesday, June 17th, 2008So much better than Sunday’s suckfest.
What a game! Rays win! Chicago 2 - Tampa 3. Let’s relive it from my effed up perspective!
Way too much Cubs gear in the crowd. I know there are a lot of duel fans. You know Cubs fans since birth, Rays fans since moving to FL. These people should be […]
Game 59 - Rays vs. Red Sox
Wednesday, June 4th, 2008Sometimes you just have to make sacrifices for your friends.
I wanted to watch the Rays tonight. My friends wanted to watch hockey, and since it is the Stanley Cup Finals I didn’t even try to argue the merits of watching baseball. Also, Red Wings fans are dangerous. I find that cookies keep them subdued quite nicely […]
Game 55 - White Sox vs. Rays
Friday, May 30th, 2008Another Game, Another Hero.
Clifford hit a walk off homerun! He’s not a big red dog, but he’s large and he can wail. Rays win! Final score Chicago 1 - Tampa 2!
Mr. Maddon must have got my memo since he went back to my preferred line-up. Now if only he would give Ruggiano a chance.
James Shields […]
Could Justin Bring the Sexy Back to Right Field??
Thursday, April 17th, 2008Who is Justin Ruggiano? He’s right fielder number four for the Rays, but we’ve hardly gotten a chance to get to know him. Perhaps everything he touches turns to gold ala another Justin, Timberlake. Gomes and Hinske are great, just not in the field. Haynes is not great, at the plate. So when will Justin […]
Game 14 - Yankees vs. Rays
Wednesday, April 16th, 2008After Monday’s game I found the differing emotions of Rays bloggers rather interesting. A couple of us, myself included, were in the “at least they showed some spark” camp. Others were understandably either pissed off or choking back tears of frustration.
While I think the mood you’re in when you sit down to watch the game has a lot to […]
Game 8 - Mariners vs. Rays
Wednesday, April 9th, 2008Pregame - Well the big topic of the day is all the injuries the Rays are having to deal with. Garza’s doesn’t seem to be as serious as they thought, but I’m not getting my hopes up. Cliff Floyd is also out now to get surgery on his knee. I really liked him in the […]
