The Legend continues on Bill Simmons's sports blog as Super Sam reminisces about Game 162 from 2011. He talks about the atmosphere of the clubhouse that afternoon, the anxiety in the dugout as the Rays racked up a 7-0 deficit, the experience of pinch hitting and making it on base, and Longo ... actually, you should just read it. Phenomenal writing from Fuld.
I have made it clear I'm not a fan of Bowden's. His use of traditional stats and his questionable logic make many of his opinions questionable. These rankings do the same for me.
With a steady set of prospects still in this highly ranked farm system, how long does the window stay open for the Rays?
"RHP Brandon Gomes will be behind at the start of spring training after undergoing November surgery to clean up a disc problem in his lower back, but is expected to be ready by opening day."
Odd that he starts the season on the DL making room in the bullpen?
