The Rays added former top pick-turned-delinquent-turned-pitcher Matt Bush to the 40-man roster to avoid losing him to free agency. Bush who was the top pick by the Padres in the 2004, was converted to a pitcher in 2007. Tommy John surgery shut him down until 2009, a year that saw [...]

Here is a lasting image from the 2010 baseball season (via Big League Stew)… THE JUNKYARD DOGS WEBTOPIA… Yesterday we reported that the Rays had declined the options on Dan Wheeler and Willy Aybar and what that meant for each player and the Rays. Mark Topkin has the reaction from [...]
Back in March, the Rays signed Cuban defector Leslie Anderson to a 4-year, $3.75 million contract. After starting the season in single-A, Anderson has moved very quickly through the organization hitting .303/.371/.453 with 9 home runs at three different levels. With his recent promotion to triple-A Durham, it seems almost [...]

The GBT – The Good, The Bad and The Telling sandwich, where The Bad is nice and lean and the The Telling is ripe. THE GOOD: Gutsy. Down 6-2 with the bases loaded and 2 outs in the 8th, Joe Maddon had Jason Bartlett pinch-hit for Matt Joyce against a [...]
![[THE HANGOVER] The One Where We Discuss A Stadium Situation That Is Going To Get Uglier Before It Gets Better](http://www.raysindex.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/15-150x150.jpg)
Much has been made of our “proposal” yesterday in which we suggested the only regional answer for a new Rays stadium would be for Tampa and St. Pete to literally share the Rays. We never said it was the best idea, or even a good idea. We simply believe it [...]
![[THE HANGOVER] The One Where We Discuss A Rare Leadoff, The Mad Australian And Garza’s Strange Repertoire](http://www.raysindex.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/hangover11-150x150.jpg)
The GBT – The Good, The Bad and The Telling sandwich, where The Bad is nice and lean and the The Telling is ripe. THE GOOD: John Jaso And The Leadoff Spot. Sure you want speed at the top of the order, but it is more important to have a [...]

The GBT – The Good, The Bad and The Telling sandwich, where The Bad is nice and lean and the The Telling is ripe. THE GOOD: Carlos Pena. Yes he has been in a funk (a realllly bad funk) but he has always been streaky and the defense will always [...]
![[THE HANGOVER] The One Where We Discuss Jaso’s Up-And-Down D, Napoli’s Revenge And Bossman The Third](http://www.raysindex.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/hangover11-150x150.jpg)
The GBT – The Good, The Bad and The Telling sandwich, where The Bad is nice and lean and the The Telling is ripe. THE GOOD: Offense Coming? The runs came, but they came late. John Jaso’s 2-out single in the 8th scored the Rays first run in 22 innings. [...]

The GBT – The Good, The Bad and The Telling sandwich, where The Bad is nice and lean and the The Telling is ripe. THE GOOD: The Story. After Dallas Braden retired all 27 Rays that he faced, the story wasn’t about the Rays. The story was about how Braden [...]
![[THE HANGOVER] The One Where We Discuss Early Season Splits, Jaso’s Emergence And Anderson’s Quest](http://www.raysindex.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/hangover41-150x150.jpg)
The GBT – The Good, The Bad and The Telling sandwich, where The Bad is nice and lean and the The Telling is ripe. THE GOOD: Offense? The Rays are only 7th in the AL in hitting (.259), 5th in OBP (.342) and 6th in slugging (.431), but they lead [...]
