The arguments on both sides, though, make this such an interesting topic of debate. Here are my picks for the MLB Awards. http://rays.scout.com/2/795864.html 2047 Tyler Hissey http://rays.scout.com/2/795864.html Mon, 10 Nov 2008 08:48:00 GMT 0 322 Tampa Bay rays Carlos Pena on Thursday was selected as the Rawlings Gold Glove Award winner at first base in the American League. Pena, a first-time selection, posted a .998 fielding percentage in 1,099 chances. In John Dewan’s plus/minus rating system—perhaps the most effective metric used to evaluate defensive value—he also rated out fifth in the majors at the position, and second his league, with a +14. http://rays.scout.com/2/808944.html 2047 Tyler Hissey http://rays.scout.com/2/808944.html Thu, 06 Nov 2008 17:27:00 GMT 0 322 Tampa Bay rays The oddsmakers in Las Vegas have it right: the Rays are the easy favorite to win the World Series, says Tyler Hissey http://rays.scout.com/2/803655.html 2047 Tyler Hissey http://rays.scout.com/2/803655.html Wed, 22 Oct 2008 06:20:00 GMT 0 322 Tampa Bay rays The Tampa Bay Rays are headed to the ALCS. Backed by B.J. Upton's two homers and the continued excellence of the bullpen, the Rays are only four victories away from the World Series. http://rays.scout.com/2/798514.html 2047 Tyler Hissey http://rays.scout.com/2/798514.html Tue, 07 Oct 2008 16:25:00 GMT 0 322 Tampa Bay rays It is truly way too early to label a team winners or losers at the trade deadline, says Tyler Hissey. Just ask Omar Minaya, who was applauded for landing Bartolo Colon back in 2002 when he was the GM of the Montreal Expos. Minaya, however, parted ways with three future stars—Brandon Phillips, Cliff Lee and Grady Sizemore—as the Expos fell apart the rest of the way and failed to reach the playoffs. http://rays.scout.com/2/774883.html 2047 Tyler Hissey http://rays.scout.com/2/774883.html Sun, 03 Aug 2008 07:23:00 GMT 0 322 Tampa Bay rays The Durham Bulls lost for the second game in a row, dropping an exciting 8-5 slugfest to the Buffalo Bisons on Wednesday night. With top prospect Wade Davis and a former major league star on the mound, many fans in attendance expected a pitchers’ duel. The two teams painted a different picture, however, combining for 13 runs and 27 hits. http://rays.scout.com/2/773972.html 2047 Tyler Hissey http://rays.scout.com/2/773972.html Thu, 31 Jul 2008 08:21:00 GMT 0 322 Tampa Bay rays The Rays lost their seventh consecutive road game on Thursday, falling to the Kansas City Royals, 4-2. Matt Garza was not efficient with his pitches, walking four without striking out a batter to suffer the loss. Even more concerning, the Rays' offensive woes with runners in scoring position continued. http://rays.scout.com/2/772280.html 2047 Scout.com wire services http://rays.scout.com/2/772280.html Fri, 25 Jul 2008 17:21:00 GMT 0 322 Tampa Bay rays Hot News for SS Jason Bartlett http://rays.scout.com/a.z?s=322&p=9&c=2&cid=772117&nid=3518942&fhn=1 2047 Tyler Hissey http://rays.scout.com/a.z?s=322&p=9&c=2&cid=772117&nid=3518942&fhn=1 Fri, 25 Jul 2008 04:46:27 GMT 1 322 Tampa Bay rays The Rays have won a major league-best 40 games at home, but the key to their season will be taking their act on the road. Starting Thursday in Kansas City, the Rays play 37 of their final 62 games on the road, and that could be a problem. http://rays.scout.com/2/771957.html 2047 Scout.com wire services http://rays.scout.com/2/771957.html Thu, 24 Jul 2008 19:58:00 GMT 0 322 Tampa Bay rays Hot News for SS Jason Bartlett http://rays.scout.com/a.z?s=322&p=9&c=2&cid=771647&nid=3518942&fhn=1 2047 Tyler Hissey http://rays.scout.com/a.z?s=322&p=9&c=2&cid=771647&nid=3518942&fhn=1 Wed, 23 Jul 2008 22:10:47 GMT 1 322 Tampa Bay rays This afternoon, Rays Digest writer Tyler Hissey will be appearing on Happy Hour With JP On CBS Sports Radio in Tampa to discuss the Rays' chances of remaining in the AL East race. Hissey will come on at 3:30 P.M. http://rays.scout.com/2/771249.html 2047 RaysDigest http://rays.scout.com/2/771249.html Tue, 22 Jul 2008 18:45:00 GMT 0 322 Tampa Bay rays Shortstop Jason Bartlett ran the bases prior to Monday's 4-0 win against Oakland and even took a turn in the portable sliding pit set up along the first-base foul line. Afterward, he said his right knee, which he sprained while stealing third base against Boston on July 2, was nearly good enough for him to return to the lineup. http://rays.scout.com/2/771225.html 2047 Scout.com wire services http://rays.scout.com/2/771225.html Tue, 22 Jul 2008 16:14:00 GMT 0 322 Tampa Bay rays Four Durham Bulls on Thursday were elected to the International League All-Star team. Infielders Reid Brignac and Chris Richard, starter Jeremy Cummings and closer Dale Thayer will represent the Bulls at the Triple-A All-Star game at Slugger Field in Louisville on July 16. http://rays.scout.com/2/766975.html 2047 Tyler Hissey http://rays.scout.com/2/766975.html Fri, 04 Jul 2008 03:15:00 GMT 0 322 Tampa Bay rays The best-in-baseball Tampa Bay Rays made a number of roster moves on Thursday, placing starting shortstop Jason Bartlett on the 15-day disabled list, calling up infielders Reid Brignac and Ben Zobrist from Triple-A Durham, and sending Mitch Talbot back down to Durham. http://rays.scout.com/2/766944.html 2047 Tyler Hissey http://rays.scout.com/2/766944.html Fri, 04 Jul 2008 00:05:00 GMT 0 322 Tampa Bay rays The Tampa Bay Rays extended their lead in the American League East on Tuesday night, defeating the Boston Red Sox 3-1 to clinch a series victory over their new nemesis. Tim Wakefield, who turns into Cy Young when he comes to Tropicana Field, was outpitched by Tampa Bay starter Matt Garza, who scattered five hits and one earned run in seven solid innings to earn the win. http://rays.scout.com/2/766460.html 2047 Tyler Hissey http://rays.scout.com/2/766460.html Wed, 02 Jul 2008 06:11:00 GMT 0 322 Tampa Bay rays Prompted by a few questions on the subject, I decided to do my own version of the AL East player debates. Solely focusing on the three best teams—record-wise at the midway point—in the American League East, here are my picks for the top players at each position among the Boston Red Sox, New York Yankees and Tampa Bay Rays. http://rays.scout.com/2/765977.html 2047 Tyler Hissey http://rays.scout.com/2/765977.html Mon, 30 Jun 2008 15:37:00 GMT 0 322 Tampa Bay rays
