I'm out of town through tomorrow night, so I won't be posting. What I will tell you, though, is that while this seems like a total mismatch, know that the Rays have a current batting line of just .231/.311/.367 against lefties, giving us a little hope. That is an overrated offense they've got. Also worth noting that, as I write this at noon, the Rangers are down 3-0 in the eighth. If the Mariners' 2010 season were a troubled teenager, it's like he jumped off a bridge and landed in a barge full of gummy bears.
