Bautista outplays his contract by more than $70 million over the next four seasons (2013-2016).

It would be great if the Rays could actually play like the bad team they are against us for once. That home sweep earlier this year was probably 2016's low point.

Hopefully the bats come alive for this series. Our pitching has been really good and clutch lately, not including today's game of course.
Martin has been very bad with the bat in the games I've watched.

Saunders too has been dosappointing.

I think we will take 2 of 3 here, probably losing game 1. RISP issues will linger until Smyly gets lit up. Plus who knows with Dickey at home.

I'm going Tuesday, should be a beauty night for an open dome.

Kevin Pillar on 15 day Disabled list. Upton Vs RHPs should be entertaining.

Even though the Rays suck, I have no doubt that they'll have their usual winneryness that they have whenever they play us. Just hoping that the offence can finally get going. It hasn't looked the same since the all-star break.

Thinking about that series and the White Sox sweep, it's pretty crazy we are where we are now.

Dickey's been unlucky this inning. Would love to see him get out unscathed somehow.

It's crazy that at this point last year, people were saying that Goins deserved to be the starting second baseman over Travis lol.
