Royals vs. Rays June 24 game discussion
The offense is killing it right now despite losing the best three hitters from last season for varying lengths of time. In June it is the young guys carrying the load. Jac Caglianone’s wRC+ this month is 232! Carter Jensen is at 122. It has been fun to watch. If only this had started in […]

Rays Got Jac’d Up: Rays 5, Royals 12
Sometimes past results do not predict today’s performance. Shane McClanahan came into the night having allowed only two home runs over his last 56.0 innings pitched. Six pitches into Tuesday night’s game, he allowed two more. The game didn’t immediately start with doom and gloom. Taylor Walls made a diving play on a grounder from […]
Jac Caglianone make puny ball go very far in Royals win

Royals vs. Rays June 23 game discussion
The Kansas City Royals play Spring Training in Arizona, but here in St. Pete, Florida, the lineup they’re running out might as well be a Spring Training lineup. No Bobby Witt Jr., no Maikel Garcia, no Kyle Isbel, no Vinnie Pasquantino, no Jonathan India, no Cole Ragans. That’s because all of those players are injured. […]

Brian Murphy at MLB mothership has an update on Bobby Witt Jr’s recovery. Bobby Witt Jr.’s sprained right knee kept him out of the Royals’ lineup for the third straight game Monday.

The Wacha woes: Rays 1, Royals 2
If you were looking for offense tonight, you should have turned into the winner-take-all game three of the College World Series between Oklahoma and North Carolina, during which the Sooners scored 13 runs in a route of the Tar Heels to secure their third national championship. If instead you were looking for a low scoring […]
Wacha, bullpen shut down Rays in close Royals victory
Michael Wacha went seven complete innings and gave up only one run in a 2-1 win over the Rays to open the four-game series. He was quite efficient – of those 21 outs in 7 innings, 16 of them were by strikeout (5) or groundout (11, including a double play). The only truly punished mistake […]

Royals at Rays 6/22 Game Discussion
Jac Caglianone had 5 hits, 4 of them homers, against the Cardinals this past weekend in a high-scoring series in which the Royals took 2 of 3 while scoring 30 runs. I hope the 32-46 Royals bring that offense to Tampa Bay to face off against the 43-31 Rays. It will be a four-game series […]

Outfielder Austin Slater has elected free agency after clearing waivers, reports Marc Topkin of The Tampa Bay Times. Slater had been designated for assignment by the Rays last week. As a veteran with years of service time, he has the right to reject outright assignments in favor of the open market. Slater, 33, has continued […]
Rays series preview: Analytics has gone small ball
The Rays have been an analytical team for decades, maximizing the talent on their payroll-deprived roster for years. After five consecutive playoff appearances from 2019-23 that included a pennant, the team missed the playoffs in each of the last two seasons. But they have rebounded this year with a terrific start using an old formula […]

Yankees Rivalry Roundup: Rays trim Yanks’ division lead to two
Not the most enjoyable Sunday for Yankees fans, huh? Elmer Rodríguez made one glaring mistake in his spot start. Unfortunately, that mistake resulted in a three-run home run. On a weekend when the Bronx Bombers couldn’t buy a hit with runners in scoring position, that was enough to sink the Yanks, losing the game and […]
Washington Nationals drop a tight game to the Rays as the bullpen cost them
The Nats got into a bullpen battle with the Rays, and inevitably that did not end well. Tampa got three scoreless innings out of their bullpen, while Gus Varland and Orlando Ribalta both faltered for the Nats. The crushing blow came in the 7th, when Jonny DeLuca hit a 2-run homer off a hanging slider […]

Washington Nationals vs Tampa Bay Rays Game Thread
The Nats dropped the first game of the Rays series in a fairly sleepy contest. In each of the last two games, the Nats ferocious offense has been quiet. They will look to bounce back and avoid a rare series loss. As we saw last night though, this Rays team is a tough nut to […]
