Around Baseball 2015

Does anyone know where the Rays offense went? Indians pitchers have looked like Cy Young or Nolan Ryan all week..

 

"Rays offense" is a misnomer. like postal service, military intelligence, Bombay duck, Catgut, Two-toed sloths....

[o2cui2i]

need the angels to get their collective thumb out.

[RealAccountant]

Orioles tied now, Come on Rangers.

 

Argh, I would hate to see the Orioles on top if only for a day.

[jaysfan2014]

Carrasco has a perfect game thru 5 vs. the Rays. Why does Derek Shelton still have a job in Tampa?? 3 times this week the Indians pitchers have taken a no hitter deep into the game.

[RealAccountant]

Orioles just went ahead.

[Orgfiller]

"Rays offense" is a misnomer. like postal service, military intelligence, Bombay duck, Catgut, Two-toed sloths....

 

Coming into today, the Rays were 14th in the MLB in team wRC+, and 11th in positional player WAR. This narrative that their offense sucks just because they lack big name players needs to stop.

[Trouba95]

Orioles will win. They're up two and will go O'Day and Britton.

[glory]

Orioles leading 4-2. At least Texas took the first two. I wasn't even expecting that much help.

 

Indians still leading 5-0. Yankees up 1-0. Angels need to start hitting.

[jaysfan2014]

Perfect thru 6 now for Carlos Carrasco..

[fapaholic]

Coming into today, the Rays were 14th in the MLB in team wRC+, and 11th in positional player WAR. This narrative that their offense sucks just because they lack big name players needs to stop.

 

Yet they are 25th in MLB in runs scored and 21st in OPS

[jaysfan2014]

Perfect game broken by Joey Butler's walk.. still have a no-no going though.

[Trouba95]

Ugh Baltimore.

[jaysfan2014]

Yet they are 25th in MLB in runs scored and 21st in OPS

 

And most of that WAR includes defense.. and right now, the Rays can't buy a run. And if they get swept vs. the Indians, their season will be pretty much over, as they will get pummeled by top-tier teams in the Yankees, Royals and Astros.. and they don't have the bats to fight back.

[Atothe]

carrasco giving north a hard on right now

[jaysfan2014]

O's move into first place by themselves.

 

And here's a Preston Guilmet sighting in Tampa again...

[Atothe]

Lets go Carlos

[GD]

You bet :cool:

 

Carrasco gonna start killing K/BB lol

[Laika]

Carrasco so hot that he can't throw strikes anymore

[o2cui2i]

Coming into today, the Rays were 14th in the MLB in team wRC+, and 11th in positional player WAR. This narrative that their offense sucks just because they lack big name players needs to stop.

 

Tampa is seventh worst team striking out, 6th worst in hits per game and 5th worst team in runs/game.

 

you can slice any way you want, they don't score runs. Amazing they have won so many games with more quality pitchers on the DL than most teams have in their org.

 

it has nothing to do with player names. their offense sucks because they don't score

[Atothe]

struck him out yeah

[Laika]

Carrasco is going to need be up near 130 pitches at the end of this. Tough.

[GD]

COMEON GOOOOOO

 

c

[thatoneguy]

f*** off Rays.

[jaysfan2014]

And Joey Butler breaks up the no-hitter! Not going to matter.. Indians are going to win this anyway.

[Atothe]

s***

shades of Brandon Morrow

[Horses Fart]

That sucks.

[Atothe]

still a wonderful start, his fastball was tremendous tonight

[Laika]

Carlos didn't want it bad enough
