Happy Jackie Robinson Day to all who celebrate! The White Sox (6-11) dropped the first game of a three-game set with the Rays Tuesday behind Noah Schultz in his MLB debut, and righthander Sean Burke will take the mound in an effort to create any form of positive momentum for the team. As it stands, […]
White Sox fall flat in Noah Schultz’s debut
It might not have been the perfect performance he hoped for, but Noah Schultz pushed through a rough first frame of his major league debut to finish his 4 1/3-inning outing strongly, despite the White Sox (6 -11) dropping the first game of the series to the Rays (9-7), 8-5. Schultz needed 33 pitches to […]
Very small ball: Rays 8 White Sox 5
The Rays took the first game of this series against the White Sox, with Shane McClanahan picking up his first win in well over a year while his teammates gathered twelve hits and six walks. Every player was on base at least once. This game received national attention because of the White Sox starter: Noah […]

Rays push for quick financial agreement with Hillsborough, Tampa
The current Rays owners are eager — very eager — to get the funding for the proposed stadium squared away, and have given the Tampa and Hillsborough County a June deadline to approve funding, with a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) released late Friday. Just to recap, the Rays are asking the two governments to fund […]
The Yankees don’t do themselves any favors
This is not solely a piece to bash Jazz Chisholm Jr. I think he’s a very good player, and I am currently watching him relay signs while standing on second base, both to help his own hitters and mess with Rays’ starter Drew Rassmussen. I think he brings an energy to the club that they’ve […]
Tampa Bay Rays 2026 Minor League Roundup: Week 1
This week’s minor league roundup will only feature the numbers accumulated prior to the start of play on Monday. This was the 1st a week of full minor league play. According to FanGraphs (which factors in age and proximity to the big leagues), newcomer Austin Overn the top hitter in the Rays system; the Rays […]
Three up, three down: An update on the Cubs, April 13 edition
The 2026 MLB season has had a very weird start. Many good teams — including the Cubs — are off to mediocre starts. In fact, other than the 11-4 Dodgers, the other 29 teams all have records between 10-6 and 6-10 entering Monday’s action: 10-6: Braves, Padres9-6: Pirates9-7: Guardians, Twins, Reds, Diamondbacks8-7: Orioles, Yankees, Rays, […]
Orioles news: The Orioles are in first place
Good morning, Camden Chatters. Your eyes do not deceive you. Take a gander at the AL East standings and you’ll find the Orioles atop the division (well, along with the Yankees and Rays in a three-way tie). The O’s, who a week ago at this time were practically left for dead, are back above .500 […]
Yankees hit same familiar pitfalls, Rays complete the sweep
Over the last several seasons, the Yankees have attempted a teambuilding approach that is less reliant on pure power and more resilient against the kinds of teams which have given them fits: speedy teams that put the ball in play and cover ground in the field. A team like, say, the Tampa Bay Rays. And […]
Bullpen turns strong Drew Rasmussen start into nailbiter: Rays 5, Yankees 4
I know this has been said a dozen different ways by people much more eloquent than myself, but my goodness is it ever nice to see games played at the Trop again. Haters gonna hate, but that place is special, and it’s so nice to see games under the dome again. The Rays were wrapping […]

New York Yankees @ Tampa Bay Rays: Cam Schlittler vs. Drew Rasmussen
The first two games the Yankees played at Tropicana Field since the park’s reopening have proceeded quite…troppily, if you will. New York’s anemic offense was at least able to find a pair of go-ahead hits from José Caballero in yesterday’s 10-inning defeat, though the bullpen wasted little time coughing up the meager advantage to the […]
Yankees Rivalry Roundup: Mariners stage five-run rally to beat Astros
Saturday’s game against the Rays was not pretty viewing for Yankees fans. The Yankees held two separate late leads against Tampa Bay, but couldn’t hold onto either. In the 10th inning, the Rays took advantage of the auto-runner and bunted the Yankees to death, eventually scoring twice in the frame to overtake the Yankees. With […]
Aranda Hit The Clutch, Simpson Hit The Gas: Rays 5, Yankees 4
This game started like a chess match and ended like a street race, and once the Rays hit the gas, the Yankees could not catch a break. For six innings, this one had all the tension of a real pitchers’ duel. Nick Martinez was not overpowering, but he was calm throughout, which against the Yankees […]
Yankees suffer brutal extra-innings loss to Rays at the Trop
The bottom of the Yankees lineup has caught a lot of flack for being automatic outs in the early going this season. Naturally, on a night when the 6-9 hitters drove in four runs and Max Fried threw eight innings of three-run ball … the Yankees still lost. Why, you ask? Take away José Caballero’s […]

New York Yankees @ Tampa Bay Rays: Max Fried vs Nick Martinez
Suddenly, the Yankees have dropped three-straight contests after losing two games at home against the Athletics then going down to defeat last night in St. Pete for the series opener. The good news is New York sends its ace to the mound tonight. The bad news is said ace cannot hit.* The worse news is […]
Yankees Rivalry Roundup: Bats break out for Mariners in win over Houston
The Yankees dropped their series opener against the Rays on Friday, officially creating their first losing streak of the season with their third straight loss. It’s been a reversal of fate in the last week or so, as the team’s bats have gone from doing enough to support their stellar pitching staff to barely managing […]
Yankees news: Volpe slated to start upon return
NY Post | Greg Joyce: Anthony Volpe has reunited with the Yankees as they arrived in Tampa to play the Rays this weekend, the injured shortstop having taken an extended stay at the team’s complex while rehabbing from offseason surgery on his labrum. The time for a rehab assignment is nearing, and could come as […]
Matz does it again: Rays 5, Yankees 3
Through his first three starts of the season, Steven Matz is making the 2- year, $15M deal he signed with the Rays this offseason look like quite the steal. The 34-year-old southpaw took the mound for the third time this season and left with this third win. This time, Matz held the dangerous Yankees lineup […]
Yankees’ late push falls short after Luis Gil’s rollercoaster return
The Yankees dropped Friday night’s series opener in St. Petersburg by a final of 5-3, unable to fully recover after Luis Gil’s rollercoaster 2026 debut and a middle-inning Rays bullpen bridge that slowly squeezed control of the game away. Ben Rice’s late homer gave New York a pulse, but the offense simply could not create […]
New York Yankees @ Tampa Bay Rays: Luis Gil vs. Steven Matz
The Yankees head into their first AL East series of the season tonight with a little more curiosity than usual. For the first time, New York gets a look at the reopened Tropicana Field, which officially returned to action on April 6th after a 561-day closure caused by Hurricane Milton’s devastating roof damage. The Rays […]
