Introduction

I am writing this blog because of many reasons. First of all I am from Orlando, Florida perhaps the worst sports town in the nation. I play and love the game of baseball; everything about it. I wish I could live in a baseball town, but my closest is 2 hours west in Tampa, Florida. I am from Chicago, but moved here before I can remember so my real hometown is here in Orlando. I have decided to become a Devil Ray's fan because of two main reasons. First of all, my fantasy baseball team absolutely sucks. I am in dead last in a league full of complete newbies, now I know it is still early but damn some kid just traded Andruw Jones for Granderson, and yes I am in last place. Also, my baseball game got rained out today which means it will be a good day for some xbox live. Of course, the one day I get to use it, it will not let me get into a game with my friend, and I really am not interested in playing with people I do not know from Adam. So yes I have decided to become a Devil Ray.

The thing is a 3rd place finish is right around the corner for the D-Rays they just need better management. Keep the shitty payroll that is fine, just stop going out there and trying to get these cheap "stud" hitters. There will only be one Miguel Cabrera ever Tampa Bay, so stop trying to find him. Our neighbors to the south have always had a good club, and still a cheap payroll. You know why? It is pitching. Pitching wins championships. As soon as the Devil Rays give up on the Gomes, Cantu's, and Wiggintons, and bring in more of the Annibal Sanchez type players they will not finish dead last and perhaps could make a run at third. I like where the team stands right now only a couple games back, and they have Game 2 with Texas tonight. I will be sure to keep updates throughout the game.
