The starting job at first is pretty much
locked up with Carlos Pena there, but the question
is behind him. Carlos is getting older, as he is 31 now, and is entering the final season of his contract and will be a free agent after the 2010 season. The Rays have a dilema. You have to resign him if ...

Over the next couple weeks I will go
position by position and preview what the Rays should
do this offseason, and we will start with catcher. Catching is quite possibly one of the most shakey positions on the Rays, as there is no depth and the Rays do not have a legitament starter, just four ...

This morning, I posted ten questions that are
to be answered this off-season. The fourth question was
in regards to the coaching staff. And, that question has been addressed. All were up for contract renewal, and all survived except one. Hitting coach Steve Henderson was not retained, ...

known as our RAD Rays. The Rays have one contender for a American League wide award in Jeff Niemann and we won’t find out about him until after the playoffs, so on with my team awards. Most ...

I won’t try to answer these today, but
here are ten questions facing the Rays as the
season comes to a close: Who’s here today that won’t be here in February? Who do the Rays need to return to the playoffs? What does the outfield look like next Spring? Joe Maddon ...

While stumbling around the internet, I found this
Cubs blog, anothercubsblog.net , with some discussion regarding BJ
Upton. An interesting suggestion is made within the discussion. Granted, the post is about the Cubs going after Placido Polanco (for some reason). But, within the discussion, ...

Nick Cafardo of the Boston Globe handed out
his season-ending awards. His top underachieving team? It’s the
Rays, of course. His comments tend to suggest that the beginning of the end was brought about by the trade of Scott Kazmir. I tend to think that the timing was coincidental. It ...

The Rays will draw the second best season
in franchise history to a close this afternoon. The
Rays will be in search of a sweep of the Yankees to end the season on a high note. This is only the second time the Rays will finish a season above .500. The Rays have beat up on the Yankees in the ...

The Rays put up an outstanding offensive performance
last night, lead by BJ Upton’s 5-5 cycle. It
feels good to sit in the stands at the Trop and look at the Yankees fans with their heads down, and some too drunk to care. The Rays may have single handedly taken CC Sabathia out of a ...

Earlier today, Bob Nightengale had this to say
on Twitter: #Rays Teams are scouting center fielder B.J.
Upton, beliving (sic) that Tampa Bay will trade him this winter. Upton is arbitration elgible. If that’s true, the scouts got an eyeful tonight. BJ had a 5 for 5 night with 6 ...

The Rays seemed to have this one in
the bag even before the game started. The Rays
had their most consistant pitcher on the mound and they were facing a struggling young pitcher. The Rays lost the game. Garza struggled and the Rays bats went silent. Oh well, we are only playing for pride, so ...

Ok, so Carl Crawford said all the right
things yesterday when discussing his desire to return to
the Rays long-term. I admit, I lean toward the skeptical side on most things, including this one. For the record, let me just say that Carl Crawford is, and has always been, my favorite Rays ...

The Rays took their 4th straight win last
night, 5-3 and Joe got the good old shaving
cream pie. The Rays will look to end their season on a high note by completing the four game sweep of the Orioles and then we can beat up on the Yankees just for the heck of it. The Rays will send Matt ...

The Rays picked up their third straight win
last night after beating the Orioles 3-1. Wade Davis
gave the Rays another strong start, going 7 innings while allowing only 1 earned. Davis was working out of jams all night, and he was really good at it. The Rays now can secure a series win with a ...

The Rays need to stop with these comeback
games. The Rays should’ve had this game in the
bag. Does anyone besides me think that our starters are tired? The three that have pitched all year are struggling right now. The Rays are out of it, so why don’t we give their starts to some ...
