My Rays Blog

Postseason Wonder

mlblogsmbaseballblog — Sun, 30 Nov 2008 21:13:24 +0000

Since this year’s postseason was all full of surprises, it got me thinking about next year. Now I have a huge feeling that the Rays will make an AL victory again. Maybe even a World Series victory. But if they don’t, i have no idea who I’ll root for. Maybe the Yankees, maybe the Red Sox, or maybe even the Dodgers if it happens. I’m not saying all these teams will make it. None of them might not make it to next year’s postseason. But I don’t think that will be a problem because I’ve had faith in the Rays since day 1 and I’m sure they’ll make it.

Who is More Likely to Make the Playoffs Next Season?

So, I’ve been thinking about who will make the playoffs this year. Ever since Coco Crisp from the Red Sox got traded to the Royals, it got me wondering.

Will it be the kings of baseball themselves?

Or will it be the 100 year waiting team that needs a chance

Or the team that no one stopped believing

Or that special team that deserves it the most but didn’t get last year

My point is that you never know what’ll happen next in baseball. Especially the postseason.

Thanksgiving

Hi everyone! Long time no post. Sorry I haven’t been posting blogs. I just figured since the season was over, I didn’t have to write any more blogs. But anyways, I’m doing just for you. So thanksgiving is tomorrow and I want to know what all you guys are doing. I’m going to a friend’s house for thanksgiving. Can’t wait!

Can’t Believe It’s Over

It was the worst loss of the season for us. We came all this way for a loss against the Phillies? No, that can’t happen. I thought we were gonna make it. I really did. Don’t get me wrong, the Phillies played some good baseball and I congratulate them, but still it’s very upsetting. It’s hard to believe the season’s done, but I guess there’s always next year. And I can’t wait for that series when we really win it all. Since the season’s done I don’t know if I’ll still be posting blogs until next season, but I’ll try and keep you guys updated. Well, that’s all for this post.

We Have to Win

mlblogsmbaseballblog — Mon, 27 Oct 2008 20:35:51 +0000

This is crazy. Phillies beating us 10-2? That’s messed up. We only have one chance to beat them tomorrow. If we don’t win, then we’re done for this season. That really sucks. If we don’t win, it will be a dissapointment to the Rays, and the fans. We didn’t come this far to see all of our chances to be wasted, no, we came to win, and that’s exactly what we’re going to do. Even if it takes all night, we will come back on top, like we did before. It’s all about claiming the big trophy. And that trophy should be ours.

Phillies 5 – Rays 4

Tough loss for us. I thought we would take the 2-1 lead against Philadelphia. It kinda sucks. It was an exciting game, but I thought Matt Garza would help us out this game. But we still have 4 more games. We have to win the next 3 in Philadelphia, or we’re dead. The rain delay was so long, that I thought they would have to cancel the game. I didn’t even watch it because I thought it wouldn’t happen. But I wasn’t going to stay up all night again, like game 2 in the ALCS. But like I said, we’ll show the Phillies how much we want it.

American League Champions!!!

The best Rays game I have seen. Yesterday was one of the greatest nights of my life. I’m so happy I was apart of it. Now that we’re in the World Series, we’re gonna have to take on the Phillies. I think we’re gonna do a great job. It still isn’t over until it’s over, and we’ll show how much we want this.

Who could forget Akinori Iwamoura’s out against Jason Bay? And that run that Carlos Pena scored? Or the strikeouts that Matt Garza pitched? It was a great game and I’m looking forward to the World Series.

One Last Chance

mlblogsmbaseballblog — Sun, 19 Oct 2008 17:13:45 +0000

It’s tied now, and whoever wins tonights game, is going to take on the Phillies. Let’s make one point clear here, the Red Sox make great comebacks. They have won against so many 3-1 leads before, that they’re doing it now. Tonight’s game kind of worries me, but I have a good feeling about it. We’re at home, we have excellent players, and we have one more chance to make it. Let’s just keep in mind that this is the last chance we have this season.

Another Great Game, A Closer Chance At the World Series

mlblogsmbaseballblog — Tue, 14 Oct 2008 23:12:15 +0000

It was an awesome game yesterday. The best part was Rocco Baldelli’s homer. I thought that was cool. Another great homer was from Even Longoria’s in the 3rd inning. Now we have a 2-1 lead against Boston, but it’s not over yet. We have played the Red Sox so many times this season, that the Rays know how they play. They could have a trick up their sleeve. I’m just curious to see what will happen tonight in Game 4. Like I said before, it’s going to be a long series, and only one team advances to the World Series.

Great Comeback!

It was a long game last night. A see-saw of home runs. But it was a good game that ended in extra innings. I knew the Rays would make a great comeback. The 2 runs scored by Even Longoria, the run by Fernando Perez. It was great, and I’m looking forward to Boston tomorrow. I have a good feeling about what’s going to happen on Monday. It just feels great. It’s going to be a long series and only one team will stay.
