2/8 - THT Live: Jose Tabata in his mi» by David Golebiewski
1/8 - Don’t you forget about me by Craig Brown
1/5 - Fan happiness (part one) by Joshua Fisher
Friday, September 11, 2009
News: As expected, Upton (ankle) is not in Friday's lineup, the St. Petersburg Times reports.
Analysis: Ben Zobrist is once again playing center field for the Rays. Continue to consider Upton day-to-day at this point.
Thursday, September 10, 2009
News: Upton (ankle) left Wednesday's game in the sixth inning after his ankle flared up.
Analysis: Expect the Rays to give Upton at least a few days off. With the Rays basically out of the playoff picture, expect Joe Maddon to be very cautious with Upton's playing time from here on out.
