  [THE HANGOVER] It Was Edwin Jackson Vs Josh Beckett. What Were You Expecting?

  June 5, 2008 at 10:49 am 3 comments

  THE GOOD: (see “THE TELLING”) THE BAD: (see “THE TELLING”) THE TELLING: C’mon people. Think about this for a second. It was Edwin Jackson versus Josh Beckett in Fenway Park. If they played that game 100 times, the Rays would win it 1 time and only because Beckett would be […]

  With yesterday’s off-day, we wanted to take a moment and promote our campaign to get CARL CRAWFORD (and Dioner Navarro) ELECTED TO START THE ALL-STAR GAME. As Rays fans we don’t necessarily need to generate all the votes necessary, but if we can get Crawford on a roll, when the […]

  THE GOOD: Evan Longoria. The kid was the man last night going 3-6, driving in 3, including 2 on a go-ahead home run in the top of the 13th. We may have seen a different side to the Dirtbag in that 13th inning at bat. With Carlos Pena on first […]
