Luke Scott News

It was a soggy, rain soaked affair but a win is a win and with the Sox as injured and skittish as they been lately, the Fenway faithful took anything they could get after the spanking Boston received at the hands of the Orioles in Baltimore over the weekend.

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. - Tampa Bay right-hander Alex Cobb was taken off the field on a stretcher after he was hit on the right ear by a liner off the bat of Kansas City's Eric Hosmer in the fifth inning of the Rays' 5-3 win over the Royals on Saturday.

Mike Carp hit a two-run home run and Jonny Gomes added a solo shot, as Boston held on late to down Baltimore, 5-4, in the third edition of a four-game series from Camden Yards.

The Rays should take the chance that the Nationals, Angels, Orioles and Dodgers have already taken and promote their touted prospect, Wil Myers, in order to see what he can do at the major-league level.

Disclaimer: this team has made me much happier than expected after the month of April.

Rays DH Luke Scott, who has seven hits in his past 59 at-bats and is hitting .207, says he has been having problems with his contact point.

With the 2013 MLB draft in the books, organizations can fully turn their respective attentions toward improving their big league roster for the present, future and, in some cases, both.

Earlier this season, when OF Sam Fuld realized he was the only player not to homer as the Rays set a record for consecutive games with a home run, he joked that he wanted to set the record for most consecutive games without a home run.

ESPN's Jim Bowden went out on a limb and proposed that Wil Myers , your favorite 22 year old prospect, will be on his way to the Tampa Bay Rays in the very near future: That's all, just a fun fact.

Jeremy Hellickson pitched six scoreless innings and six different Tampa Bay players drove in runs to lead the surging Rays to an 8-0 victory over the Baltimore Orioles on Saturday.

The Baltimore sports scene is blessed with a bunch of talented bloggers who bring their unique perspective to the conversation.

Luke Scott was not in the starting lineup Wednesday night and he won't likely be in the Thursday's, either, since the Rays are playing at Marlins Park, where there will be no designated hitter.

This week saw the call-up of a pair of much-hyped prospects, so it's a good opportunity to remind everyone of a fantasy baseball tenet: you are under no obligation whatsoever to bid on every "can't-miss" rookie.

Matt Moore picked up his eighth win of the season and Luke Scott hit a tie-breaking homer in the fifth inning as the Tampa Bay Rays completed a three-game sweep with a 3-1 victory over the Baltimore Orioles Sunday at Camden Yards.

Luke Scott started the year on the DL. Since rejoining the Rays, he's looked like his old self.

Instead of writing about the Orioles' fifth straight loss, I'm going to write today about the new sports bar that's opened up near my house.
