I'm a convert to the Rays. I've been following the Tigers for the past 2 years (they had such a good first half last year!) but they're a real shambles this year. I blame it all on the Miguel Cabrera trade; all those prospects swapped away for an over-rated player and a poor pitcher; just bad team management in my mind.
The Tigers came so close in 2006 ... and were doing well until the All-Star break in '07 ... then Sheffield got hurt, and that just killed them. That intimidating Home Run Bat just died with that shoulder injury; he still hasn't come back.
But the Rays ... what a surprise! they lead the AL East at the halfway point of the season, and are beating up on Boston as we speak (2 out of 3 in the current series ...)
they've got the pitching, the timely batting, some power, and most of all, the Team Spirit. A very exciting team to watch; and full of coastal energy!

LOL. Thanks for that little audio snippet :-) Michael Kay, right? as unbiased a commentator as I’ve ever come across …
ahh … looks like Tampa Bay just swept the Red Sox … second time this season. A good match up heading down the stretch methinks …
The Mets will beat them. Scott Kazmir needs a hard punch in his left arm.
