3/3/10 Spring GDT: Tampa Bay Rays @ Baltimore Orioles

Finally, baseball is back. After the longest offseason in the history of ever, the Tampa Bay Rays will kick off 2010 spring training today. That means the game day threads will be awaken from their winter slumber. Thanks to all the people who stuck around during the winter to help us make/enjoy the best offseason in the sites history. Also welcome back to all the GDT'ers who we've missed over the past couple of months.

Now on to the game...

When: Today 1:05 pm

Where: Ed Smith Stadium, Sarasota.

TV/Radio/Web: Raysbaseball.com

Probable Rays pitchers: RH, James Shields, RH, Matt Garza, LH, Jason Cromer, RH, Luis Richard De Los Santos, LH, Jake McGee, LH, Heath Phillips, RH, Dale Thayer

The Lineup:  Jason Bartlett, SS, Dioner Navarro, C,Ben Zobrist, 2B,B.J. Upton, CF,Matt Joyce, RF, Kelly Shoppach, DH, Dan Johnson, 3B,Ryan Shealy, 1B, Justin Ruggiano, LF

Probable Orioles pitchers: RH Jeremy Guthrie, LH Mike Gonzalez, LH Wil Ohman, RH Dennis Sarfate, RH Cla Meredith, RH David Hernandez, LH Alberto Castillo

Outside of Shields and Garza, Jake McGee is obviously the most interesting name on the Rays pitching list. I'm interested to see how his velocity/stuff is looking at this point.

 Also, please be reminded...SPRING TRAINING STATS DO NOT COUNT.

That said, Let's Go Rays!

That great spring in '08 seemed to give us confidence going into the year

I would like to have a good spring W/L wise even if it doesn’t matter

Sure, doesn't matter means just that

It doesn’t mean the player won’t have a good or bad year, they just are not indicative of future performance. With Navi in the 2 hole, I’m praying lineups don’t matter either.

“They are fearful of what may happen to them if they were to snitch on these coyote people,” Wiley said of the recruiters and smugglers who bring marijuana farmers into the U.S. “That’s organized crime of a different fashion. There’s nothing to gain from (talking), but there’s a lot to lose.”

If I were him I would work the word “coyote” into every sentence I say.

Never played 3B at MLB level, but did work at hot corner for Durham in 08. Also noted Benzo at 2B/Joyce in RF for those interested in the 2B/RF triangle.

I think that may have been an outlier.

It was only a -0.9 UZR (it would constitute extrapolation beyond the sample size to look at UZR/150). I think he’s fine at 1B in the long run.

MLB.tv is well worth the money, imo

If you are a baseball nut, you can watch all of your games live, it archives the game so you can watch at work the next day without commercials, they condense every game to just the BIP/final pitch of AB so you can watch a game in like 15 mins, and they have highlights to get caught up on just the important stuff. $100 sounds like a lot, but it’s over 6 months, I used to have to go to the bar all the time to watch and that meant I couldn’t comment here and I’m running up tabs that might go to a hundo in a night. It’s a great deal.

Sell it?!?!

This is my 3rd hat. They’re currently sitting on top of each other. I can count the number of autographs I haven’t kept for myself – they’ve all been gifts, AND I’ve told the player in advance and let them decide if they’re still willing to sign (which they all were). You could not PAY me enough to give up any of these items.

Besides, it’s not the autographs, it’s the experience. Each autograph came with a conversation.

Where you click the determine what the action was and then clicked the ball/strike count before clicking some sort of “Save” option where it creates a jpeg to hotlink too. It would be simple and easy to post. I’ll have to look into it tomorrowish.
