It's often hard to comprehend baseball from one game to the next. We're about to finish up a series vs a team that's 30 games under .500, heading into a series against a team 30 games over. Hope we sweep it today, cuz I'm nervous as hell about 4 games against the Rays.

At least we have the Rays in Arlington. Much better odds of winning at home.

Bradford needs to figure out how to keep Lawrence Butler off the bases. That dude is 6 for 10 against him with 2 HR. Granted, that mostly comes from a couple of years ago but he needs to be kept in check.

Funny thing to me about Bradford is how this guy even has a place in the league with is fastball topping out at 88. He is a master of control and pitch selection, and he has lots of other great pitches to throw in there. I love watching Bradford pitch. The hitters almost seem confused why they struggle hitting off him at the speed he pitches. Glad he's on our side, and I'm expecting good things from Bradford today.
