Rangers go up 2-0 on Rays

Regardless of what happens the only pending contract is Lee. With the 3 billion dollar tv deal the rangers just signed hopefully they can convince him to stay. The team is realy stacked in the minors as well, top 3 system, and hopefully they will be good for a while.

wrong report on tv deal but greenberg has deep pockets

The Rays cannot hit. They struck out way too much all year and except Crawford all had low .bas. Plus they were no hit twice after having had a perfect game tossed at them in 09, with virtually the same lineup. When a lineup like that runs into good pitching this is what happens.

The Rays cannot hit.

In 2008, all year long, they kept getting clutch hits when they needed them.

The Rangers have just shut them down....

I am not sure what their problem is, besides not hitting????

They appear to be mentally out of the series???

Dioner Navarro put the hex on them after not making the team.

In a serious case of sour grapes, Tampa Bay catcher Dioner Navarro went home against the team's wishes after being told he wasn't going to be on the roster for the first round of the playoffs, according to the St. Petersburg Times. The Rays wanted Navarro to stay with the team and work out in case he's needed due to injury. Five other players not on the roster are with the team.

Navarro, an All-Star just two years ago, already appeared to be on the outs with the Rays after batting just .194 and spending much of the season at Triple-A. The Rays appear to be set at catcher with John Jaso and Kelly Shoppach.

But even if his Tampa Bay tenure is over, he wants to go out on that note rather than experience the playoffs with his teammates? Weak.

Thanks for the link....

What a great team player Navarro is being!!!

Rays have found their bats again. Leading 5 to 1 in the sixth inning of Game 4.

Barring a Rangers come back...

Looks like Cliff Lee will be pitching Game 5!

Sorry Ranger Fans.....

anybody else think the tbs dbags are a little biased?

For which team?

I hate when the announcers show favoritism towards one team......

I just wish the umpires would get their act together and quit screwing up calls.

Like the stolen base in Game 1 of the Braves @ Giants. He was clearly out but went on to the score the only run of the game. Braves lost 1- 0.

they have the typical east coast bias. The rays need to change their name to the tampons because there a bunch of crybabies. The announcer never pass up a chance to bash the rangers, and praise the rays. None of the missed calls have effected the outcome of any of our games thankfully
