Properly decorated seating on way to jolly ol’ England!

Meme is the flair but to me he's a very important superstition.

Ticket was given to a Rays Fan ✌️❤️♻️

We bought four tickets for tomorrow’s game, when price’s dropped, Rays took care of us and gave us tickets to tonight‘s. One of our guests couldn’t join. So we have (1) free ticket for a Rays fan who can be at Gate 2 by 8:08.

Go Rays 💥💥💥

Go Rays!

You know, for good luck, right?

RAYS FANS, I'm working on a fun project about the upper deck at Tropicana Field. Want to be part of it?

Have you sat in the upper deck recently? I'm especially interested in people who love it up there for whatever reason, people who once had season tickets up there, have nostalgia or fond memories of those high seats, or anyone with a take on the vibes, charms or advantages of the upper deck. If you only sat up there for the first time recently, and have a take, that’s OK too!

I'm on a tight deadline and need to talk to people TODAY.

Please message me or call/text my work line at 813-434-3181. It will only take a few minutes.

And please share with any longtime Rays fans you know who have sat up there recently or will be sitting up there tonight. - Christopher with the Tampa Bay Times / tampabay.com

I have some extra blue rally towels from the ALDS. Would happily trade one for a yellow ALCS rally towel as I will be unable to attend any ALCS games due to travel. Let me know if you have one you’re willing to trade!!

Rays up!!

Tampa Bay won five of its six regular-season series games against Cleveland, outscoring the Guardians 20-8.

While regular season results don’t necessarily mean a lot in the postseason, our experts see this ALCS unfolding in much the same way.

More than 15 The Athletic MLB staff members weighed in and overwhelmingly picked the Rays to return to the World Series for the first time since 2020.

Sending these vibes for tonight!

No Trolling and no trolling other subs - reciprocal bans will get you, and we've got more games! :)

Spearheading the [Rays] offense...is superstar Junior Caminero, whose history of being signed by Cleveland in 2019 before getting traded to Tampa Bay in ‘21 will surely become a talking point.

“We have to get him out,” Guardians president of baseball operations Chris Antonetti said. “I’m not looking forward to that. But I’m glad we have the opportunity to try.” How do the Guardians match up?

It's time again, Flappy Friends! Time to bring back the electricity, camaraderie and wins back to the Trop! Be PROUD & LOUD!

Let's keep the good vibes going and RAYS UP!

Based on what i am seeing that the Rays cant hit against lefties, they hit lefties better than Cleveland hitting either

Now that we know the official roster, if we said Ras starts game 1 and 4, what do you suggest for the remainings? We now have Peralta who could start game 2 and 5 which will leave us with game 3-6-7 (ofcourse if needed) maybe Nick in game 3 and Jax in 6, but we can utilize them better from the bullpen

So what do you think?
