[Update] Here is a quote (via Tommy Rancel) from Dunn about DHing… I don’t want to DH. I don’t want to DH. If I have to DH, I’ll probably go home. [10:17am] The non-waiver trade deadline is Saturday, so let’s get caught up on what the Ray may or may [...]
First from Tim Brown of Yahoo! Sports (via Twitter) we learn from the Rays that they don’t think they will acquire Jayson Werth and that they might have been close to trading for David DeJesus at one point… Rays source: Seriously doubt we get Werth. DeJesus was the better bet [...]
We continue to get conflicting stories on BJ Upton. Ed Price reports this morning that the Rays are shopping Upton “hard.” This is not the first time we have heard Bossman’s name linked with a trade rumor. But it is the first time we have heard that the Rays are [...]
The Rays have been linked to several names as we near the July 31 free agency deadline. But the one name that lingers is Jayson Werth. We learned earlier this week that the Phillies are pushing hard for Roy Oswalt, but that they would need to move Werth in order [...]
Last night on “Baseball Tonight,” Buster Olney reported that the Phillies are working very hard to acquire a starting pitcher. Specifically, Olney says Roy Oswalt fits the bill perfectly for the Phils. So what does this have to do with the Rays? Olney says it will take a third team [...]

Tonight is the non-tender deadline for the Rays and their six arbitration-eligible players. So it might be a good time to say your good-byes to Jonny Gomes, as 2009 has a very good chance of being less Jonny-terrific. Willy Aybar, Dioner Navarro, Jason Bartlett and Grant Balfour will certainly be [...]

Because the best cure for a bad “Hangover” is a good “Happy Hour”. That cute little Rayhawked, bespectacled fella is part of the new logo over “The Heater“, Marc Topkin’s blog at the St. Pete Times. He sure is cute. But he looks a little familiar. Hmmm? Where have we [...]
