RaysUp! Mat Germain, Primo Tampa Bay Rays analyst looks at the Red Sox & AL East

Mat & Mark dig into the Fenway experience and the potential for Boston to come back hard when Adam Duval & Trevor Story return.

The Fires in Canada and the impact on people
Rays play in Cold, Wet & Rain at Fenway
Eflin, Glasnow, McClanahan & Bradley – top tier pitching talent
Manuel Margot takes a hard hit against the scoreboard
Rays gel together as players & family & RedSox needs of team meetings
Trevor Story & Adam Duval will be returning soon & becoming more of a threat in AL East
Red Sox were 29 – 23 outside of games with the Rays
Toronto Blue Jays – a hair away from Tanking
What’s up with Alek Manoah – Not a Roy Halladay, Can Manoah come back strong
Fenway Fans – need some of their top players back. They are not happy with Duran and cannot wait for Duval to return.
Boston Red Sox – Keystone Kops defense gave Yandy Diaz a “little league home run” Everything may change when Trevor Story returns to Shortstop and Kike Hernández
Ron Washington of the Atlanta Braves has reset the team defensively. Red Sox need that kind of coach
To build a stronger Red Sox team they need to bring up Marcelo Mayer at Shortstop, Kike in Centerfield, Trevor Story at second base and Devers at third.
Orioles still need to make investments into pitching
Reds exciting times ahead with Ely De La Cruz
The Rays are Marvelous – Rays, Yankees & Orioles are leading both the American and National Leagues
Rays upcoming schedule & upcoming return of Andrew Kittredge will make the future bright
Will Quebec get an MLB team? Government is supportive of the idea of attracting an MLB team. But what will Bronfman and ownership group offer to build a stadium.
Costs could include other costs of $2.5 billion to make this happen
Other cities most likely to get a MLB team - Vegas, Utah, Portland, Charlotte or Nashville
Nevada government has ended session without a guarantee of financial support for a new stadium. Ownership needs to take on the responsibility of buying and building a stadium
Rays still have not established their new stadium and location has not been finalized.
The Fenway Park experience – reasonable Ball Park Food Prices and Fan passion
Bucket List parks – Wrigley Field & Petco
Rays Minor Leagues – Evan McKendry, Pitcher of the Month
Vidal Brujan
Mat & Mark’s projections for Tampa Bay Rays for total season wins for the Rays
Rays players potential trades to come
