Holy crap how much run support has Liz had to be 6-6. That stat line is crazy. Our hitters need to pretend he is Halladay so we can actually do well against him.

he has been pretty decent lately

but he still wears a Oriole uniform which should be enough said.

I predict Longo will go yard

and BOSSMAN will walk 2 times, and steal a base and then fondle a baby raptor

Looked like the Red Sox were celebrating pretty hard last night, hopefully they come out flat today and lose a quick game to the Indians.

And ours takes a little bit longer so we can clinch with a Victory!

GO RAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The amazing season continues………

RAYS FA SHOW

I’m going over, these teams got some major bats! Longo goes yard, E.Jack tosses six solid innings. GO RAYS

Maddon should suspend the game

It’s way to complicated to have to make a line up AND win what might clinch the AFC east for the rays.

Start Hammell and all the bench players

then in the 4th bring in Jax and the starters

So if you are late coming to the party:

You missed a 34 pitch inning by Edwin Jackson resulting in 2K, 5r , and 6hits. Dewon-esk. Come on Rays.

Tempting

Since Markakis is a bust I’m sure we’d have to give you an extra throw in at the least; there is a guy who just finished AA called Matt Wieters, he could be a decent backup someday if you’re interested.

Last time I checked a baseball game is 9 innings. As long as we can keep it close

The Rays can pull ahead.
