The pettiness of their vendettas and beanball stuff is really sad; there's so much great stuff in this franchise and anyone who watches them and knows baseball realizes that they get too focused on getting 'one up' on teams on this baloney year after year after year. It is not a large part of the lack of success this year, but it is on the list. They need to grow up, organizationally...Rays fans hopefully are saying the same rather than being fanboys about it.

Originally posted by wannabegriffey View PostOkay, so the rays are looking rugged these days. Plus, there are several teams between them and the playoffs in the East. Y.Escobar isn't having a great season by any stretch of the imagination. Does Hak Lee get the call in the second half? His defense is suppose to be very good. His walk rate is very good. Any chance for regular playing time??

I certainly never claimed that either team is wholly blameless for the mess Friday---as is usually the case in these situations.
I do think it's hard to make the case that what Price did initially is anything but ridiculous and out of bounds (and would say that his action is one that the Rays, whether just Price or others I have no idea, own on their own). I haven't heard a case why not, either, it is worth noting. Maddon's comments about it, and even the team's mascot getting in on the act, speak to my larger point.
Lot of great stuff in tampa---they should be better than they were Friday, and have been on this stuff.
