Around SBN: The Gift Of The 2003 Tigers

TB vs. BOS series (Aug. 27-29)



If we start the miracle it will have to start tonight.  I'm heading up to the Trop and praying for a 3 game sweep.  Every year I go to one of these weekend three game sets, the Rays kick our ass.  If we want hope for the 2010 season anything less than a sweep is worthless. 

I look at us as a big underdog in this series, and I think beating Price tonight will be our toughest challenge.  Hitters have to go up looking 1st pitch fastball (95mph +).  Price just gets better the later he gets into counts.

Don’t take it personally, but maybe you should sit this one out.

Haha I agree

Hoping to break the curse. Our football team has had a curse for too many years to count.

All price does is throw fastballs, and a rare curve.

The dude is just ridiculous.

Was there last night and will be there

Sunday Night. The Bucs play tonight and I will be one of the 15,000 who will attend….

Everytime I look at the Rays, I struggle to figure out how they score runs. Longoria is having an off year, and there are multiple players hitting under .250. Yet they are third in the AL in Runs. Even with all the injuries, our lineup is STILL better than theirs.

Their bullpen is awesome, though.

Ortiz hit a couple of balls hard last night of Price (which is unusualfor him against Price). Actually Boston hit a number of line drives at people.
