Well well well, the 2023 Winter Meetings are quite literally right around the corner, starting up this weekend in the Music City, Nashville, Tennessee. With the rumors surrounding the Tampa Bay Rays right now, we're expecting quite the few days of action going on, and who better to bring on to talk about it than Bally Sports Sun's Ryan Bass! Thanks so much for listening and be sure to foll...

The World Series is over. Awards season has wrapped up. That can only mean one thing: the offseason for Major League Baseball has arrived. The Rays have already made some moves here and there, mostly small acquisitions, but with GM Peter Bendix now in Miami, a new era of front office moves is once again here. We talk about all of that and more on this latest episode of Rays The Roof, our first tru...

The title of the episode says it all. There were warning signs for days, weeks, even months with the Tampa Bay Rays this season, and while we wanted to see it out, holding hope, the season came to a crash landing in the Wild Card Series, getting swept by the Texas Rangers at home. We discuss what was an incredibly successful season with an all too familiar end on this latest episode of Rays The Ro...

That game was atrocious. What a worse way to introduce the baseball world to the 2023 Tampa Bay Rays on a postseason stage than with what happened on Tuesday at Tropicana Field. We talk about whatever performance the Rays decided to give on the field in our instant reaction podcast following Game 1 of the American League Wild Card Series. Thanks so much for listening and be sure to follow RTR on s...

The Tampa Bay Rays have officially let the champagne flow a bit later than a lot of people thought, but guess what, baseball is weird, the Rays are weird, and it makes it all the better knowing that the Rays would do something different, something unique when it comes to postseason celebrations. We welcome on WTSP Sports Director Evan Closky to talk about the most recent series, the upcoming AL Wi...

The final homestand for the Tampa Bay Rays might not have gone the way that we would have wanted as Rays fans, but one thing that took us by surprise on Thursday was the call-up of top prospect Junior Caminero from Double-A Montgomery. We talk about Junior's debut and what's next for the Rays in this latest episode of Rays The Roof. Thanks so much for listening and be sure to follow RTR on...

Holy crap, nearly two decades of waiting is over as the Tampa Bay Rays have announced a new stadium deal with the City of St. Petersburg on the existing Tropicana Field site to be built by the beginning of the 2028 season. We brought on Steve Carney, multi-time guest of the podcast and the man behind St. Pete Nine, to talk about what this means for the Rays, for St. Pete, and for baseball in the T...

Simply put, this is the biggest series of the season. Rays. Orioles. Four games at Camden Yards with just two games separating the two teams in the AL East. The Rays' four-best pitchers against the best arms from the O's. It's what you want. It's what you crave, and it expects to be fantastic baseball. We talk about that and more on this latest episode of Rays The Roof. Thanks so m...

Rough times for the Rays are here since the beginning of September, having lost three of four with a seven-game home stand at America's Ballpark underway.

We appreciate everything and we're excited to have reached this milestone! This podcast talks about the Orioles/Marlins series and gives a look forward to this weekend's series against the Houston Ast...

A win in their series finale against the Atlanta Braves was just what the Braves needed. Add on an extra boost from the All-Star Game in Seattle, and it seemed like the perfect momentum swing...for two games that is. Since their first two wins against the Royals, the Rays have lost four-straight, including being swept against the Rangers. Now, the Rays and Orioles are tied atop the AL East, making...

Talk about a better time for the All-Star break to come.

It has not been an easy last 10 games for the Rays, who went 3-4 on their West Coast road trip and are 4-6 overall in that 10-game span. They look to turn the corner, retaining the best record in the AL East and all of baseball this weekend, with three games left in their four-game set against the Kansas City Royals.

Let's just pretend the Rays never played in New York this season because this last week has been a difficult one. The Rays finish the road trip with a 3-4 record in New York, but hopefully, the good vibes will come back as they head to the Trop for a 10-game homestand. We talk about all of that and more on this latest episode of Rays The Roof. Thanks so much for listening and be sure to follow...

The Tampa Bay Rays are the first team in baseball to reach 30 wins, just the second time in franchise history the Rays have been the first team in MLB to get to 30 first.

Thanks so much for listening and be sure to follo...

The Rays are back at America's Ballpark this week and home cookin' is in the cards after a sweep of the Pittsburgh Pirates.

We talk about Pittsburgh, New York, and take a trip back to the Windy City for a look at the White Sox series on this latest ep...

The Houston Astros came to down and just like how they stole signs back in 2017, they stole the mojo of the Rays at home, taking two of three at America's Ballpark. Houston is the real deal and the Rays are now 2-4 against contenders this season. We talk about this recent slide ahead of Tampa Bay's four-game road trip to Chicago this weekend. Thanks so much for listening and be sure to fol...

The magical 13-0 start to the season for the Tampa Bay Rays is over, but 16-3 is still a pretty good start.

You are not reading that title incorrectly. The Tampa Bay Rays remain the lone undefeated team in MLB and have done so in a dominant fashion not seen by baseball fans in decades, even more than a century. We welcomed on Bally Sports Rays sideline reporter Ryan Bass to talk about this historic start as he begins his second season with the team. Be sure to follow Ryan on social media and look out fo...
