A+ Vero Beach Devil Rays (32-31)

Four Devil Rays players had multiple hits in backing up Rollins' strong outing, and Vero Beach moved a game over .500 by winning three of four in the series.

Sorry, remember THE THREAD LAST WEEK FROM SOME GUY WHO KNOW SOMETHING ABOUT JESSY DARCY?? I was making humor at the thread’s expense… I will repent. If you will, what’s up with R. De Los Santos, injury? Horrible k/9, goodish w/9, and keeps the runs off the board, just org filler ( I assume)? And I realize at this point he’s beyond a prospect age-wise, but he’s done well.

No problem

As for De Los Santos, he is organizational filler. He went on the DL with shoulder soreness, but he might be back for his next start on Sunday. That is still up in the air.

Really, he didn’t seem like an injury risk. And sorry to be a troublemaker, never my lame intent. I just enjoy the TBR’s minors stuff.

No trouble at all

Just didn’t realize where you were coming from earlier.

You're not a trouble maker.

I didn’t catch the reference, but now that I remember that thread I’ve rec’d your post.

As have I

Once I caught the reference, I LOL’d.

I beg your pardon?

I didn’t spell his name incorrectly.

Meant with ALL CAPS, oh.

Holy Guacamole!

Anyone else see the line on Heath Rollins? Jeez….A complete game shutout and a 3 hitter a that! Not too shabby

by Rays Rule on Jun 9, 2008 10:59 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Definitely

An awesome outing. The funny thing is, he got exactly as many groundball outs as he did flyball outs, which is unusual since he is a groundball pitcher. He was effective by taking care of batters on his own. Excellent outing.
