Rubber match @ Detroit today. I would really like to see the Rays take this big series against a tough opponent.

Re: 4/4 - 4/15 Game Discussion Thread
This team needs B.J. Upton back in a ****ing hurry.
Trotting both Sean Rodriguez and one of either Elliot Johnson or Reid Brignac out there every day is such an offensive liability that it's not even funny. Couple that with the fact that both of our catchers can't even hit their weight and you're talking about one of the worst 7-9 spots in any batting order in baseball.
It also doesn't help that Luke Scott is out nursing a minor injury as well.
Seriously, which of these is the sore thumb:
Jennings - LF
Zobrist - 2B
Pena - 1B
Longoria - 3B
Joyce - RF
Upton - CF
Scott - DH
Keppinger/Rodriguez/Johnson/Brignac - SS
Molina/Lobaton - C
or...
Jennings - CF
Pena - 1B
Longoria - 3B
Joyce - LF
Zobrist - RF
Keppinger - DH
Rodriguez - 2B
Molina/Lobaton - C
Johnson/Brignac - SS
That second lineup gets ugly FAST...Comment

Rangers currently up 1-0 on the M's bottom of the 3rd. Hamilton just sent a bat into the crowd and some dude just straight caught it. That's a souvenir worth keeping.Boston Red Sox

Re: 4/4 - 4/15 Game Discussion Thread
The Rays need Hak-Ju Lee to be ready by next year. It totally sucks having three shortstops on your major league roster who ALL completely and totally suck.
It would be nice to have a real major league catcher someday too.
EDIT- Might as well give Tim Beckham a shot in the meantime. I mean, he had a solid year last year after all the "bust" labels, so why not bring him up and see what he can do? Even if he sucks, they can lean on Lee next year.Last edited by 55; 04-12-2012, 02:21 PM.Comment
