    They do, I'm not sure if players would be expected to give special attention to "God Bless America", I've never paid much attention to the dugouts in the middle of the 7th inning to notice, but I would guess they aren't.

    If the Rays did a "Church at the Ballpark" night and requested the players to wear a cross patch on their cap and jersey and some players opted out I don't think anyone would find fault. I think forcing players to partake in promotions is just a bad idea.

    You raise a good point, hopefully there aren't any covid clusters near the All Star break that could put players at risk.
  4. rwilfong86
    It seems like they may be forced to, I think they have better options right now who may be more consistent in those high pressure situations.

    I am guessing the team knew beforehand they had players who wouldn't support it, so why put them in an awkward position? That isn't a display of unity either. The team could have/should have discussed this with the players to see if they would be on board, and if there was kickback they could have nixed it for the sake of team unity. Your comparison between wearing a piece of protective equipment to keep oneself safe versus a decorative patch patch doesn't quite work. Two completely different situations. The Rays did a great job of respecting the individual beliefs of their players and hopefully the rest of professional sports will follow suit. No one should be forced to participate in any promotion they don't feel comfortable with.

    It seems like every day there is a new guy who comes up big, whether with a clutch hit or shutting down the opponents lineup.

    If he can get it up to the .380 mark wouldn't that be fun?

    In just over a month, Luis Arraez has improved his average from .296 to .358 (including back to back hitless games last week!). Could we see him make a run at .400 this summer? Seeing him win a batting title would be pretty amazing.
  10. rwilfong86
    Yep and I wanted to add a poll to see what people think.
  11. rwilfong86
    All 3 would be worthy, I'd love for the world to see Duran throw fire!
  12. rwilfong86
    Agree with you, Arraez needs to be in the lineup everyday. Polanco's numbers have been down and hasn't been sharp defensively, Gio has been great and should be in the conversation.
  13. rwilfong86
    I think Arraez would be the best option but his not having a set position makes that a little difficult at this point.
  14. rwilfong86
    How did they screw it up? Players have the right to exercise their freedom of speech and religion and not do something that violates their conscience. Kudos to the Rays for letting players opt out.
  15. rwilfong86
    I wouldn't be surprised if he makes a run at .400 this summer.
  16. rwilfong86
    Your questions are absolutely valid and most of them are exactly what many of us are thinking, for me the Jax move made no sense.
  17. rwilfong86
    With Megill, Pagan, and Thielbar coming back i think they could have stretched him a little more. But we got the W and thats the most important thing.
  18. rwilfong86
    What's scary is that 5 runs isn't a big enough cushion to feel like the bullpen won't blow it.
  19. rwilfong86
    The Pirates swept the Dodgers on the road. In baseball anything can happen.
  20. rwilfong86
    I'm of the opinion and maybe among the minority that Jax should have came in for one more inning since he got through on 9 pitches.
  21. rwilfong86
    Not sure whats funny but I'd rather have the team win a road series against a better team going into the Yankees series than get swept, losing 7 out of 8 on their road trip going into the series.
  22. rwilfong86
    That would probably break the internet?
  23. rwilfong86
    Who Should Represent the Twins at the All Star Game?
  24. rwilfong86
    It shouldn't have been so close, but I'll take it over yesterdays performance.
  25. rwilfong86
    Weekends are about the only chance I have to watch West Coast games.
