4/15 vs Rays

[BornToRun]

Win. 2 more to go

[onlybereaved]

Stoked with the last 2 games offensively. We can win games when we score 5+ runs and play with leads. Would be nice to take 3/4 or even sweep the Rays. Everyone is settling in and it shows potential the team has with the current roster. We aren't great by any means, but we can hold our own and grind out some wins this year for sure.

[TylerD]

Hopefully we keep the offense rolling. The last two games have really been a joy to watch. So much more fun when your team is playing like that. Now with a win today and a loss from everyone els we will be tied for second. Just weird seeing Baltimore in first lol.

No reason to believe we will not hit today unless Moore pitches well enough to keep that Rays bullpen off the field. We are playing at home and for the most part have been patient at the plate, forcing the Rays starter's pitch count up early. Drive the Rays starter off the mound by the 5th or 6th and they appear to be dead!

 

That said based on the last two days I expect Madden to try to keep Moore out there until his arm falls off or until it is painfully obvious that he can't continue.

Moore had 5 walks against the Tigers in his first outing. If this team can keep grinding out at bats and work the pitch count, Moore could be out by the 4th or 5th.

Why is not Sweeney in the lineup?

Why is not Sweeney in the lineup?

 

Moore is a LHP. Sweeney will likely be a bat off the bench if a RH relief pitcher comes in.

By the way - SFF At The Game Mojo Part II!!!

BTW what happened with Ciriaco, I think this guy deserves an opportunity in the OF.

So... Are they going to platoon the spot with McD/Repko? I would give him a chance to play every day given the circumstances.

Lol f*** you. Senior year is expensive though. I miss a lot of free time but having your own money is the best thing ever.

They have a senior year for hooking? Cool bro, didn't know that.

I know how you feel. I had to miss yesterday's game because of work. Only two semesters away from getting a degree and hopefully a real job where I don't have to work on the weekends.

[NativeBostonian]

Son of a bitch. I can't seem to watch the game on tbs. I hate living in tampa.

Time for Felix to s*** all over Matt Moore's overhyped face.

I'm all for that idea.

[Northern Star]

Everyone wears 42 and a kid reading out the lineup = double fail.
