Pen embarrassingly DESTROYED

[Kingdom]

9 runs in the final two innings

Tampa Bay Rays vs. Cleveland Indians - Recap - May 25, 2009 - ESPN

Thayer, Choate, Balfour, and Isringhausen (what, he's still around!?) did jack. This is after the rays pounced on Carmona and David Price throws 100 pitches in 3.1 innings. Not a pitching clinic until Jeremy Sowers goes 5 innings of scoreless relief.

Ok so, yea they did horrible last night however... considering it only happened this bad this one time... I still say the Rays are better than the Indians... last nights loss was a major fluke...

Is it really a fluke? The rays pen for the most part is horrible. They're using Isringhausen and Choate, that's about all you need to know.

Guess Percival isn't retiring.

They need Jose Mesa

I'd say 9 runs in two innings is fluky, no matter how badly the pen sucks. That is 2005 Rays shit right there. This team is better than that. My question is why does Gabe Kapler still have a job while Joyce is rotting away in AAA.
