TBS again?
MLB hates fans. Is there at least the Phillies/Dodgers on Fox tonight? Or is this an “off day” in the middle of 2 home games for the Dodgers.

Because they Rays have one. Their bullpen ranked last in the league last season, but this year it’s good. You might even say that it’s improved.

The only reasonable argument that you could make is that the Rays DID overperform their Pythagorean W/L by 5 wins, and are therefore not quite as strong as they seem.
I doubt, however, that TBS is capable of this type of high brain activity.

Lincecum..
Not only is he great, he is now part of the team. He is a Giant and the fans want him to be a Giant. If he’s traded there’s a huge backlash from the fans probably. There would have to be quite a haul back.
Lincecum’s contract will probably not be as appealing as Longorias, but I’m hoping he’s locked up soon.

they’re both fantastic players who should be superstars for years to come, but objectively speaking, the Giants would get the better of that deal (slightly), right now based on the composition of the teams (Rays already have quite nice nice starting pitching in the bigs) and the Giants have a big black hole in the organization at 3rd base.
