So we see Tampa next on April 24-26.. where they'll draw about Expos(late 90s/early 2000s) levels at the Trop. Unless it's the Yanks or Red Sox, the Rays can't draw any fans at the Trop. -
Why is Grant Balfour out there? Is Cash trying to run his bullpen to the ground? Thought they'd use Bobby Wilson...
-
Man, Pompey just hit that to the 2nd deck!
-
Mikie Mahtook with his 1st MLB HR! Luckily, it's in a 10-run game.
-
And they'll likely sub Bautista out for Valencia soon too..
-
Tolley coming in for Reyes. Might as well in a 9 run game.. wonder if Cash will use a position player to pitch tonight? Their bullpen is really taxed..
-
Man, Souza has HUGE power..
-
Hey, maybe we'll see Valencia in the OF again..
-
Well, Erasmo just earned a DFA: 3.1 IP, 8 H, 9ER, 3BB, 4Ks. Don't be surprised if he gets cut after this start. No wonder Seattle wanted him out.
-
Smoak smokes a 2-run single!
-
BTW, I'll be at the Atlanta Braves game this Sunday for Bautista bobblehead day. Anyway, have you noticed we're one of the best defensive teams in baseball early on? Top 3 in the AL in many defensive metrics.. Yanks are the worst defensively, and Boston is mediocre itself.. with several of their players, even with a small sample size, showing signs of losing a step..
-
FINALLY! A HR at Rogers Centre! E-Ram sucks..
-
Was that bunt really necessary? Waste of an out..
-
Another bad Red Sox SP.. Wade Miley got lit up badly vs. the Nats: 2.1 IP, 5H, 7ER!, 3BB, 1K, 1 HR given up to Ian Desmond. Buchholz, Masterson and Miley have been terrible.. putting a ton of pressure on an overworked Red Sox bullpen (32.2IP, 2nd highest next to the Yankees.)
-
And yet, the Red Sox win because the Nats keep shooting themselves in the foot with errors (blame Blake Treinen for this.)
-
And now HanRam's at 3rd instead of LF, as Sandoval's foot hurts after a HBP. Better not be broken.. or we'll seeing either Holt or Garin Cecchini at 3B in Boston for several weeks. And we're still waiting on Bogaerts' MRI on the knee.
-
Justin Masterson just blew a 5-1 lead and now it's tied at 5. Where have we seen this before with him? And just like that, Ogando just gave a 2-run double to CF Michael Taylor..
-
Not gonna happen. Hanley's had zero reps at SS this year, and is terrible defensively at SS anyway.
-
That's not the issue. You have to have somebody that's a long-term injury before using the 60-day DL. And right now, Boston does not have that, unless Brandon Workman's elbow injury results in Tommy John Surgery. And Edwin Escobar is expected back soon, so he's not a 60-day option. And of course, Boston already used Vazquez's 60-day DL stint to add Sandy Leon.
-
Concerning news for Boston regarding Xander Bogaerts' knee.. in addition, Rusney Castillo is out a few weeks with right shoulder inflammation caused by a diving play in AAA Pawtucket. Losing Bogaerts to the DL could be a problem.. they have no natural SSs on the 40-man, and nobody that could be moved to the 60-day DL(Vazquez is already on the 60). They'd have to DFA someone just to purchase a contract right now.
-
Geez, people, it's only one game! If you want to see teams in trouble, look at the Brewers, Twins, Marlins.. even the White Sox have been awful to start. And Odorizzi is actually quite good.. as I've said, this may be his breakout season. But will he get enough run support?
-
Probably explains why we have so few GIDPs this year so far..
-
Not a lot of offense in this game.. blame it on Odorizzi dominating. How do the Rays keep finding such good arms? Could he be a breakout candidate this year? And don't feel bad, Jays fans.. the O's were dominated by him too. Tomorrow we get Matt Andriese.. I don't know much about him. And Wednesday's starter is TBA (likely Erasmo Ramirez, who was terrible on Friday.)
-
Got to give the Rays credit.. Odorizzi has been dominating early this season. Imagine how tough this Rays team will be when Smyly, Cobb and Moore return. And Bautista's attempt to steal 2nd was a boneheaded play. After all, tomorrow is another day.. and the Rays probables are really questionable for tomorrow and Wednesday. So we can bounce back from this.

Stephen Drew hits a PH Grand Salami off of Tommy Hunter! 6-4 Yankees.
