Open Thread: Yankees at Rays

MATCHUP
Devil Rays face Yankee's at 7:15 at Trop
Doug Waechter faces the Old Man Kevin Brown. The Rays are hoping to break out of the funk they have been in. Doug pitched much better in his last outing. It was two years ago Doug looked like the real deal in his late season debut. Lets hope he continues to improve.

Waechter? What!

Maybe I'm a little battle weary but does anybody else think Douggie needs to head to Durham or Montgomery or worse.
It is tortureous to watch these young kids get the shit beat out of them over and over. I know we don't have alot of choices but for christ sake put Bell in there or something.
Hopefully Douggie will have a good night but is anybody with me on this?

Sanchez!

Leads off with an infield single, setting the table for a big first inning. 5-0 at this moment.

Please give us 7 strong Doug!

Why don't you guys lay off him one night. I have an idea, let's bash Geoff Blum, who gets my vote for Worst Ray Ever, and has the nerve to insult poor Lee Elia to the San Diego press.

BTW another game we don't get to see in Sarasota

Worst Ray ever

Hmm, thats got to go to Jason Romano or Castilla on Rays

Worst Ray Ever?

Let's take a poll--And it has to be someone with significant playing time. Romano only played a handful of games, right?
Vinny was truly horrid but I think still has the longest homer in team history.

Pitchers should be a differnt category--I nominate Springer
