Now onto the News, Rumors, and Commentary…

“Some thoughts on watching the Rays get absolutely pummeled tonight: Sometimes pitchers get unlucky, but Wacha was not unlucky in the first inning. But midway through the first inning I lost track of the Twins runs. He did no worse than any other Rays pitcher. While there is no denying a terrible start is a terrible start, perhaps he can take some comfort from having been much less terrible after the first inning and ultimately giving them five innings.”

“After entering the game with a 1.138 OPS allowed against the first batter of an inning (83 plate appearances), Wacha let the leadoff man in each of the first three innings reach safely. “I’ve never, myself personally, been through a stretch like this,” Wacha said. Cash said he doesn’t have a reason to remove Wacha from the rotation, so it appears the right-hander will just keep trying to pitch his way out of the funk. Of course, the Rays have been polar opposites of that: In shutout fashion, they snapped a streak of seven-straight games with eight or more runs scored (a franchise best).”
