Continuous Rays thread: fun season (1 Viewer)

[Michael Brown]

If I knew the Rays thread had cake, I woulda been here months ago

 

[Premier]

She's a gator grad too. :-/

I see. Do I know her?

Lol. I doubt it. Probably a full decade after you.

 

[Premier]

Man...Jennings really sucks.

 

[Premier]

Well the bad news is that they lost.

The other bad news is that Hernandez pitches tonight, so they're probably going to lose again.

The good news is that Farnsworth is heading to the DL so they can replace him with an actual talented pitcher. Sucks you have to see some of these old crappy guys get hurt before they get replaced. Everybody is waiting for Luke Scott to finally strain something so Myers can get here.

Nice little brawl...Shields has one great right cross... I wish it would have landed on Crisps face! Did not matter because Crisp got his ### kicked pretty good. after.

I've been waiting for five years to se what DaGuru thought about this. What a wonderful thing to wake up to.

i liked when gerald williams decked pedro

 

[Raider Nation]

Any cake in here tonight?

 

[Premier]

Maddon does some awfully dumb things sometimes. Bringing Rodney out for another inning definitely qualifies.My fiancée, who knows almost nothing about baseball said "aren't they pressing their luck here" when she saw him out there again.

Maybe she'd have Jennings run more.

She doesn't understand why he plays.

I can one up her. I don't understand why he's on both of my fantasy teams

You benched him today didn't you?

Wife to be made a strawberry vanilla cream cake today. Deeeeeeelicious.

you have to see the throw to second that Ross just unleashed. Landed about 10 feet into centerfield.

What about dumping one of Fuld, S-Rod, or Roberts? Seems like redundancy.

It was the first time I saw it..they were showing old brawls on the MLB Network. Shields looked like he can throw down pretty good. Crisp was just a human punching bag.

I agree. Would be great. Not sure what the hold up is.

 

[Osaurus]

So I guess Scott hasn't shaken his hitting slump yet. Hello AAA.

 

[Premier]

Getting owned by Ubaldo.

Now Hammell. Their combined era is like over 11.

Now Aceves with his ERA of 6 and WIPP of 2 here to mow people down.

 

[Premier]

This team sucks, guys.

31-31 against squads not named the Marlins.

 

[Norseman]

This team sucks, guys. 31-31 against squads not named the Marlins.

They go on just enough of a streak to get your hopes up, but they lay too many eggs like last night.

 

[gump]

And another....

 

[Premier]

Outscored 17-3 by the Royals in two games.

In other news, training camp opens in like 43 days.

 

[gump]

Is Cobb alive?

 

[Premier]

Is Cobb alive?

Mild concussion. Took a 102 MPH baseball off the head and ends up with a mild concussion. Crazy.

 

[Mr. Pickles]

Lucky SOB. I hope he'll be okay to pitch again soon.

 

[Premier]

Well at least if you're going to lose 3 out of 4 at home, it's to one of the best teams in baseball.

 

[Premier]

Myers called up too. Not like they needed him this weekend, but whatever.

 

[shadyridr]

Who is myers replacing? Scott? Can't be joyce right?

 

[Premier]

Who is myers replacing? Scott? Can't be joyce right?

Definitely not Joyce. Joyce goes to LF, Myers to RF and I have to imagine Scott/Kelly Johnson share DH.

 

[Balco]

I think the Kelly Johnson era is about over. He has been brutal the last month or so.

 

[Raider Nation]

You guys are still holding off Toronto for last place, anyway.

Uhh Rays are closer to the Yanks than the Jays are to the Rays.

Did your team of paraplegics actually win a game today?

 

[Raider Nation]

LOL. This entire division has ZERO chance at doing anything in the playoffs.

Would seem like it, but what great team is there in the AL this year? It's wide open.

Great SP and offense but their bullpen sucks and they've underperformed until recently.

Anything can happen in the playoffs.

agreed although i believe they will probably trade for a closer. That rotation is pretty crazy if porcello continues to pitch like that

 

[rascal]

Myers starting both games and batting sixth in the first game. I like the starting both, and batting sixth was what I expected.

 

[Raider Nation]

I love how Mr. Unconventional pitches to fat Ortiz with 1st base open. You couldn't see that damage coming at all. So stupid.

 

[Osaurus]

Rain delay is the best part of this double header so far IMO.

 

[Premier]

Do you really think it matters? Somebody would have got those runs home.

Maddon hinted today that Cobb may be out for the year, so we can probably pack it up here.

Productive day.

Team sucks. You want an apology or something?

Stop taking my comments so personally. We were both Rays fans today. If I can't vent here, where can I do it... in the Brewers thread?

They're 2-9 against Boston this year. Just not sure why you were expecting a different result.

One can hope.

Wil ####### Myers!!!!!!!

 

[Premier]

@jasoncollette: Alex Torres has now faced 69 hitters this season. Outcomes: 4 hits (2 doubles), 5 BB, and 27 K's. 0 runs allowed

Sure glad they took him out today while he was cruising.

####ing maddon sometimes.

 

[Premier]

Wil ####### Myers!!!!!!!

That was great.

Manager boondoggle after that...not so much. And I love Maddon. But taking a white hot Torres out is getting way too ####ing cute.

 

[Raider Nation]

Wil's first look at Mo next inning should be fun. Puig saw three cutters, K'd looking and tipped his cap.
