The Rays getting a rental in CC is pretty dumb IMO. Rather them just stick with their current roster (maybe add a bullpen arm or two) and see what they can do. Percival kinda scares me a bit.

MyNameIsMethodis · « **Reply #121 on:** June 24, 2008, 10:40:02 AM »

Yeah but CC adds a definitie playoff spot and a "maybe" world series ring (since we can beat every NL team).

With these 1 run losses, the Braves are this year's Nationals in that regard. Sadly, we could end up being much much worse.

MyNameIsMethodis · « **Reply #135 on:** June 26, 2008, 03:58:30 PM »

Garza almost threw a no hitter. The only thing he messed up was ONE homer to Hanley Ramirez, otherwise no hits.

Yet no one cares.

MyNameIsMethodis · « **Reply #136 on:** June 27, 2008, 08:28:27 PM »

Oliver Perez owns the Yankees and Braves.

It is baffling.

Oliver Perez and Daniel Cabrera are both in the Randy Johnson mold: tall power pitchers who have fearsome stuff but struggle with control and consistency.

I was going to give them a nickname in the Baby Shaq mold, but the one that made the most sense was calling them The Little Units and that could carry a different, less flattering meaning.

Also the Rays are the best team in baseball.

The Rays.

Rman · « **Reply #150 on:** June 30, 2008, 12:45:03 PM »

The Rays have been good for a while; they have just lacked consistency in previous seasons. This season they have been more focused in each and every game, and not just when they played the better teams.

MyNameIsMethodis · « **Reply #151 on:** June 30, 2008, 01:05:36 PM »

Well we actually dont have team members going to jail this time for drugs(Hamilton) or beating women (Dukes).

Its pretty obvious all the one-run Braves losses are evening themselves out as one-run Rays wins.

As such, my life is pretty balanced. Wasn't there a Seinfeld about that?

MyNameIsMethodis · « **Reply #156 on:** June 30, 2008, 11:10:05 PM »

I don't know, but Troy Percival is being replaced by Dan Wheeler and JP Howell.

No, they haven't been good for a while. This season is the first that they've had a decent rotation. Adding Garza and Shields, while having Edwin Jackson and Sonnanstine way overperform has made them into contenders this year. The thing is, they could have done this years ago by trading any of their plethora of outfielders but finally figured it out this past offseason. smh.

MyNameIsMethodis · « **Reply #158 on:** June 30, 2008, 11:25:14 PM »

I think Rocco Baldelli getting hurt is the best thing to happen to the Rays foundation, because they realized they had enough OF-ers (even though they keep signing more RF-ers! Gomes, Hinske, Gross) and needed to build up the bullpen (can you believe we have THE BEST bullpen in the majors?!)

Yeah, I'm really happy for Tampa Bay also. I'm not going to switch from rooting for the Tigers to rooting for the Rays, but it's exciting seeing them take over the league this season. I'm so sick of Boston/New York.

Oh, I'll root for Rays, I love seeing new teams in the playoffs every year. And besides, even though I love my M's, we're fucked in Seattle.

I can understand cheering for new upstart teams, especially a franchise like TB that has struggled so much in the past, but abandoning your team altogether for another ''winning'' team is annoying.

What if your team currently employs Jeff Francoeur?

I haven't watched a full Braves game in at least three weeks.
