And thank you Sonnanstine, Howell, Balfour, and Zobrist for locking this down. The Rays are on pace for more than 100 victories this season. Enjoy this season folks.

Before the season started, I decided that I followed to much baseball to just watch one team.

So I started following the Rays.
GOOD DECISION

Ditto!

I was expecting to be happy with the pursuit of .500 at this point in the season!

no offense...

but… your asses will be brought down to Earth…

i’m all for the worst-to-first turnaround, and a Rays playoff berth… but, a hundred-win season?

...no.

What part of "they're on pace for" didn't you understand?

Did I say they’d win 100? Have I ever said that? The next time I say it will be my first.

This guys a habitual troll.

baking powder?...

...i’ve posted like five times at D-Rays Bay and have yet to say anything negative…

realistically, i don’t believe your team has what it takes to win 100 games… i don’t believe “they’re on pace” either…

it’s just an opinion. doesn’t make me a troll…

Please, do me a favor.

Try .627*162, do tell me what number you get. Hint: it’s going to be ~101.

You've trolled at a lot of other SBN blogs.

Do not think that what is hard for you to master is humanly impossible; but if a thing is humanly possible, consider it to be within your reach.

be warned

No offense taken (by me at any rate)

but I assume you will not take offense either if I note that your comment adds nothing to the conversation.

just beautiful

8 more wins and 10 less losses than the yanks

by daveh33 on Jul 6, 2008 1:41 AM EDT reply actions 0 recs

Those standings sure are pretty

Now Baltimore and Toronto need to pick it up and flip with the Red Sox and Yankees for the transformation into an utter thing of beauty to be complete.

Go Rays!!!!

6 games ahead of Bos in the loss column...

9 = 8

On ESPN's Sports Reporters today...

It was insinuated by the show’s host that the AL East should be ‘discounted’ because of all the injuries to the Yanks and Red Sox. The fact that our starting shortstop, closer, and sometimes set-up man are currently on the DL escaped the conversation.

To their credit, the others did not accept that as an excuse.
