Littell and Rays Set to Unleash Surprise Sting on Orioles—Can Baltimore Withstand the Assault?
The Rays keep on trucking, and if I had to guess, they are likely to sell and then win more games. Certain teams just know how to make things work. The Rays do more with less than most teams are able to do with unlimited resources. That doesn’t mean they are going to make the playoffs, and they might not even compete for the playoffs when it is all said and done. However, the fact that they are within a good week of leading the division, it is hard to see them fully giving up. They did end the first half on a bad note, losing four straight to the Red Sox, but maybe an extended break is all they needed. Today they march Zack Littell to the bump. He had a nice first half of the season with an 8-7 record, 3.56 ERA, and a 1.08 WHIP. He is similar to Kremer in the fact that there will be a lot of balls in play with him on the mound. He has been more consistent though and put together more reliable starts. He has faced Baltimore twice and allowed just four earned runs in 13 innings on 10 total hits.Â
