A long time ago, I wrote an article for SB Nation entitled "Evan Longoria is the Tampa Bay Rays". In honour of his retiring as a #Rays 3B today, I've re-read it and feel it's more applicable & true now than ever before. Hopefully all #Rays fans feel the same way. www.draysbay.com/2017/3/14/14...

#Rays great & potential hall of famer hangs up the cleats & glove as a #Rays 3B, as it always should have been. Looking forward to seeing more of him with the #Rays organization in the future, something that will bring tremendous value to the franchise as a whole. Well done, Longo. Live the dream!

Other considerations: 1. #Rays are ~ $20M below '24 spend 2. Littell is a FA after 2025 3. Fairbanks, B Lowe & Jansen are FAs after '25 unless opts are picked up 4. Kim salary increases to $16M in 2026, Diaz to $12M, Rasmussen to $5.75M 5. Obligations: in '26 are only $35M, in '27 are $0.5M #RaysUp

Thankfully the current #Manitoba #Wildfires are well North of the most populated regions which are protected by many lakes, and rain is in the forecast over next 36 hours. However, with the way fires jump & the droughts, it shows how populated regions are more vulnerability than ever.

#Yankees Gerrit Cole… #Dodgers Tyler Glasnow… #Dodgers Blake Snell… Now #DBacks Corbin Burnes… Go ahead big spending teams, spend on pitching & give them huge deals. Meanwhile #Rays pick up guys off waivers & turn them into above average starters & pay them a fraction. #IntelligenceOverMoney #MLB

I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: so long as the #SupremeCourt is corrupt, there is no law in the #UnitedStates. It is no longer a democracy.

Top 10 run producers in #MLB since May 1st. #Rays 3B Junior Caminero among the top 10 with some impressive (and very well paid) names. #SignHimNow #RaysUp

#Rays and #BlueJays play 2 series against one another within last 2 weeks of the 2025 season. The #Guardians and #Mariners are also #Rays opponents in September. Considering the current standings, you could not script it any better for #MLB.

Here's how the next 9 games line up for #Rays It'll be interesting to see if #Rays decide to use a spot starter at some point, but with rotation rolling along really well right now, it's hard to make that argument. Road trip to North East incoming! #RaysUp

PECOTA said #Rays would only win 82 games in 2025. #Rays are 33-29 With 100 games left to play #Rays are on pace to win 53 more games, which would give them 86 wins on the season. If we assume Ha-Seong Kim & Shane McClanahan return & help #Rays improve, that could get up to 88-90 wins, imo. #RaysUp

#Rays and #BlueJays have moved ahead of #Mariners in chase of a wildcard spot and are keeping pace with #Yankees who lead ALE.

Within the last 5 weeks, #Rays have: Swept #Padres Won 2 of 3 vs #Yankees Won 2 of 3 vs #Brewers Won 2 of 3 vs #MNTwins Won 5 of 6 vs #BlueJays Won 4 of 7 vs #Astros Swept #TexasRangers This as Ha-Seong Kim gets going in AAA (played SS last night) & Junior Caminero shows he's a star in the making.

Last night was Junior Caminero Bobble Head day & he did not disappoint fans who came to see him play. A star is rising, folks. #Rays would do well to lock him up long-term. #RaysUp www.mlb.com/video/00u7j7...

On this day in 2024, #Rays beat #Marlins 5-3 with these players aboard. Only 6 of these 16 players are still with the team a year later. And I have to say, they're better for it overall. The only ones let go with significant success are Paredes & Adam, and Caminero >> Paredes, Orze = Adam. #RaysUp

#Rays Starting Pitchers lead #MLB in innings pitched And they also have the 2nd lowest Whip in #MLB at 1.13 Kevin Cash is allowing some to exceed 100 pitches No openers used in 2025. No shifts. What rule will #MLB change in attempt to slow #Rays down this time? Limit front office contract lengths?

#Florida, you get what you voted for. The ignorant governments in charge have left you all vulnerable to damages that insurance companies will now be able to blame on governments, giving them a way out of paying billions in claims. Good luck!
