Rays and Red Sox Clash in High-Stakes Showdown That Could Break the Scoreboard Records

I can’t say how many times I’ve given praise to the Tampa Bay organization for the way they’ve succeeded over the years. The team continuously trades away players that are of good talent, but about to get a good payday. That isn’t something that is worth praising, but the fact that they continue to win games despite their trades and changes is impressive. This is a team that entered the year with an expectation that it would be a bit of a down year. The revolving door of players and talent have made it so they are still successful, and they are seven games above .500 as of today. They are in third place in the division, but only have a game and a half lead over the Red Sox. They have lost two of three games to the Red Sox here and are in danger of losing three of four if Taj Bradley can’t position them to win. Bradley is 5-6 for the season with a 4.79 ERA and a 1.30 WHIP. Bradley has been better on the road than he has been at home this season, including just a third of his homers coming on the road. Overall, Bradley has been a mixed bag. In six starts last month, he had three where he didn’t allow an earned run, and three where he allowed at least five. His most recent outing saw him throw 5.2 innings and allow three earned runs. Red Sox hitters have been tough on Bradley, batting him around to a .261 batting average for the season.
