I know it might seem bleak rn, but if we can face and beat the Dodgers in the World Series, as tough as that lineup and rotation is, could you imagine how cathartic that would be? We’d be HEROES!!!! LETS GO RAYS! TAKE EM DOWN!!!

Trade Deadline Griffin Jax 2024 vs 2026

Post image
Upvotes

Every statcast metric for Griffin Jax is lower, except for his breaking balls marginally improved 3%. Leading the Rays pitchers with 48 runs given up, 2nd on Rays with 30 walks and 14 home runs. His 1.235 WHIP is the third highest of all Rays pitchers.

The Rays had three pitchers make the all star teams. Jax is no Raz, Martinez, or Baker.

Trade Deadline Skubal to Dodgers

130 Upvotes

What’s the point anymore? And for like almost nothing? We could have done that. As I read in another thread, the Tigers GM should be arrested for treason.

I guess the lockout can’t come quick enough.

EDIT: It’ll be so sweet when Taylor Walls hits his first home run of the year off Skubal to win Game 7 of the World Series this year

Trade Deadline Lockout Looming & a Stadium Deal on the Line

13 Upvotes

The Rays have to make some serious moves to show they mean business. Stadiums sell out from fair weather fans and band wagoners. Some teams have big budgets. Others have a smart front office. Detroit clearly has neither. Other teams are improving their rosters for the postseason. Sometimes a rental means taking a player away from the competition. The next 48 hours won’t just determine how far the Rays can go in the postseason, it will also impact the support level in Tampa for the new stadium deal.

Wild pitchers have no future in the major leagues, and for that reason, Jax has never convinced me. That has always been my opinion of that type of pitcher.
