Price gets 16th Win

by safaridave on September 2, 2010

RAYS(82-51) Win 2-1 over Blue Jays(69-64) and we beat the Jays in this series.

David Price goes 8 strong innings as he records 8 strikeouts, 2 Walks and 4 hits.

Sorriano closes out the 9th with his 40th save of the season and leads all of MLB in saves.

Rodriguez goes 3 for 3 and could of hit for the cycle but the Jays walked him on his final at bat.

Rodriguez had a HR, Triple, Single and a stolen base. Thanks Sean for giving D Price some offense and his 16th Win.

Next up is the struggling Baltimore Orioles.  The Rays will be on the road for the next 10 days facing the Orioles, Red Sux and Jays all for 3 game series.

10 Run 6th for Blue Jays

by safaridave on September 1, 2010

ENOUGH SAID !

Nieman looked great for 5 innings. The 6th was Real bad as the Jays scored 5 without recording an out. Cormier came in and got punished as well.

No real offense for the Rays as we have only 5 hits.

Carl Crawford only played until the 6th and went 0 – 2. Matt Joyce replaced Carl and went 0-2 also with 2 strikeouts and 2 men left on base.

David Price will get us back on track tonight as he goes for his 16th win of the season.

50th Post at KeepCarl.com

by safaridave on August 31, 2010

I do what I can as a Rays and Carl Crawford fan. Why I created this site?

The reason is :

  1. I am a Rays Fan.
  2. Carl Crawford is one of our best players.
  3. We Love Carl Crawford ( in a non sexual way )
  4. We hate the  Stinkin Yankees and the Cheatin*Red Sux        *performance enhancing drugs and phantom calls.
  5. Baseball belongs in the Tampa Bay area along with Carl Crawford.
  6. If we let Carl Crawford go, he will dominate us for years to come.
  7. No Carl Crawford = Fewer fans and no new stadium.

Rays Fans, we are in a tight race for the American League East division. We need to show up at the Trop as much as possible to show our support for the Rays. The more fans = more $$$ for Stew so he can resign Carl Crawford.

Whats Wrong with you JOE?

by safaridave July 20, 2010

I am not a professional ball player or even had any experience above senior league baseball.
I am a fan that listens and watches as much MLB as possible and I have a beef with Joe Madden.
His normal philosophy on  pitching match ups is match pitcher to batter with the stats and put the best match [...]
