Sox fan here. Ask Paper, lol. Good ball these Rays were playing though. And a loose, smiling dugout. Look relaxed and just having fun playing the game, at least thru the last sweep of my Sox. Not sure how this recent skid will affect them. The AS break give them time to stop the bleeding? Or extra time to let some doubt creep in after recent performance? Remains to be seen. Personally, I say the Rays are for real. Playoffs. Dunno. But I certainly don't believe this is a fluke. Looks to me like a well rounded team doing what a well rounded team does... contending.

The wannabe Crackerays are self-destructing....they're making the woeful Indians look like world champs!! That 5 game lead they had 6 days ago is down to a half a game now....BEWARE you flash-in-the-pans, Big Papi will soon return to ensure your doom to the bottom of the division, your rightful position thru the storied history of your dismal franchise!!!
