Evan is seriously clutch! another big RBI in this series. Rays now only down 3-2.

Next up; Boston

Yup. this afternoons game was ugly at the end.

Boston is struggling at the moment. we need to take advantage before they right the ship.

The Rays bullpen has been down right horrific. Something needs to be changed because this cannot continue. Yesterday 8 runs allowed in one inning and now 8 runs in 2 combined innings. Pathetic. Feels like Magic this year, keep it close then get humilated at the end.

Pitching as a whole has been bad starting with the exhibition season.

Bullpens are always on the edge of being good vs terrible......there is cause for concern though when the rotation can't get to the 6th inning.

Damn, 4 losses in a row. we need to turn it around. we have a full season ahead of us but we can't afford to play catch up. not in this division.

Rays finally win one in Boston 1-0 after Shields pitches a helluva game.

Rays up 4-2......Price throws too many fastballs

Looks like the Rays finally made a good DH signing in Scott. Some real power, much needed. Remember Burrell and Manny lol.

When Upton comes back its going to help the offense because then we can play Zobrist at 2nd and not have to play the offensive blackholes of Rodriguez and Brignac together.

Even though I like both of those players you named. . . This!

Plus, Upton is my favorite Ray and I'm dying to watch him play again. He should really help us out.

The Rays have not had a power option at DH in years.

If Scott stays healthy, he should put up 25-30 dingers
