Same, I tuned in at about the 3rd inning after the Rays and scored.

I suspended my blog to deal with the lack of an open gameday thread. What do you want from me?

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.

I’d rather listen to Buck, Chip, & Darling than Buck & McCarver any freaking day!

I'm sure I would too..
Yet I’m on antenna TV here. I can get other feeds but usually I don’t pay attention enough to have it on my main computer screen, I’d rather it be on TV instead.

Did you know the Rays have an improved bullpen?
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.

Seeing a guy in a TB Rays jersey catch the Longoria HR was enjoyable…whoda thunk we’d be watching this a few months ago??

Looking at these two...
rosters. Is there any player you wouldn’t do a 1 for 1 position-based roster swap with? (IE Giants 1st baseman for TB 1st baseman).
I think I am going to cry now. :-(

of course, Dave Martinez (bench coach for Rays) might have more upside as a player than some current Jints roster members

I love Joe Maddon. He has the thick glasses and a sort of mohawk. He’s so awesome.

Still awesome, regardless of origin. Plus I think it’s cute that he’s engaged.

That reminds me
I bumped into Paris Hilton and her sister while shopping at the Ceasar’s Palace Forum last weekend in Vegas.
That was really random.

I used to be with it
But then they changed what “it” was. Now, what I’m with isn’t it, and what’s “it” seems weird and scary to me.

I turned the game off in disgust when Buck Martinez said that Jon Lester is the best pitcher in baseball. How did they ever get five runs off of him?

You wouldn't believe the Rays are up 5-0 on the Red Sox?
Didn’t the Rays win the season series against the Red Sox? Haven’t the Rays played exceptionally well all postseason?
Shut up, TBS announcers. There’s a reason my brother calls you Telly Bull Shit.

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.
