They say the world only remembers first place and calls second place a failure. But for me, the #Rays was just as thrilling. I'm even more excited for next year.
Anyway, it worked this time. #Rays
Considering Simpson's speed, Cash likely believed that simply BIP would be enough to score a run. Below is the hitting data with RISP against LHP.
Although Vilade offered better productivity, Williams was the better choice if the goal was to avoid a K and make contact. #Rays
Gasser is the first 'real' left-handed starting pitcher the Rays will face this postseason. This poses a new challenge for the #Rays—and a hurdle they must overcome.

It's very predictable. Kelly was not the Kelly I liked.
Using a challenge early on when leverage is low is risky. Remember that actual challenge success rates are not as high as we thought. They are not looking at a screen with the strike zone drawn on it like we are. Save it for when it really matters late in the game. #Rays
Actually, it’s not just his cutter—his velocity is up across all his pitches. It seems like he’s not looking to go deep into the game. The bullpen is ready today, and most of them should be available tomorrow, too. #Rays
N. Martinez's cutter velocity went up quite a bit. Looks like the movement decreased a bit, though. Interesting. #Rays
