BJ Upton just stole 3rd base. That crazy mofo

Noesi has some sick movement on his pitches. Get the feeling he really has no idea where they are going though.

Wow Rays GIDP with Upton out at home.

Upton didn't slide, didn't barrel the catcher just went in there standing up like there was no play at all.

He was safe too. Not even close. Tag was applied so late it wasn't even funny. And yet he was still called out. Unreal that play, all around.

Yeah, I know people who've met with the Upton brothers and talked to them for a bit and well, I'll just say that it's great that they were born with awesome athletic ability. Because upstairs, well, not all the lights are on.
 
C.B. Bucknor is behind home plate for Phillies/Braves. Jerry Meals is at third base. Where's Joe West and Angel Hernandez to complete the umpiring crew from hell?

Gonzo double, awesome. 2 down, 4 to go.

pehaps that is the reason why they signed Damon, makes Upton look smarter and brings his value up.

Damon's HoF speech is going to go down in history as the best ever. BOOK IT.

This Rays broadcast is spending almost as much time keeping track and showing game footage of the Red Sox as it is the Rays.

I don't like it. Don't like it one bit.

Well there are more Red Sox fans in the Rays market than Rays fans.

His age still worries me I just don't want him pitching in games they don't need then maybe his back acting up.
I don't think it's the time to start babying him based on his career. Keep him fresh. Give him his inning pitched during this series. No harm done.

seems like prado has gotten to the point where he doesn't want to strikeout so that plus his bad on base skills all he seems to be doing is making weak contact with the ball. hopefully he figures it out next spring.

Cliff Lee already at 50 pitches through 3 innings. I like where this is going.
with our luck he'll throw the next 6 innings on 50 pitches or something.

What team are you a fan of?
Dodgers, wants Kershaw to win the Cy Young. Lee pitching bad helps his chances.

This is paradox logic. Are you trying to blow up a computer?

Sabermetric guys would pick the player with inferior stats if the stats said they were... superior?
By every conceivable notion, Kershaw (and Halladay) has been better than Lee this year and yet some sort Saber formula says otherwise apparently so I wouldn't count anything out.
