Rays legend Hideki Matsui threw out the first pitch tonight in the Bronx

He was wearing the wrong jersey too

A note on Brett Phillips:

He had a 2.1 bWAR, .727 OPS (higher than any Rays outfielder in 2025) and a 103 OPS+ in 2021...AND THE RAYS LEFT HIM OFF THE ALDS ROSTER

That's why the Rays lost to the Red Sox 💀

We forgot to put this out yesterday!!

Our RTR 2025 Player of the Year selections
- RTR: 1B Jonathan Aranda
- Fans: 3B Junior Caminero

There were some fantastic choices, but it's pretty safe to say Aranda and Junior were two standouts this season in Tampa Bay #RaysUp

"In Erik and Kevin we trust" - Rays CEO Ken Babby

Rays The Roof @raystherooftb.bsky.social · 1d

"We're very aware and in touch with the fatigue around this issue for the last 21 years. ... We know that fatigue is real. We know that we have a lot of work to do ahead of us and that work begins today."

- Rays new CEO Ken Babby on the ongoing stadium situation

Rays The Roof @raystherooftb.bsky.social · 1d

"Plan A is to figure it out here in Tampa Bay. We're confident that we're going to get that done." - Zalupski

Rays The Roof @raystherooftb.bsky.social · 1d

Zalupski just said: "We have a self-imposed rule that none of us and none of the partners are allowed to have any influence on the baseball side"

Looks like the groundwork that Stu laid before will continue for the Rays #RaysUp

Zalupski & the new ownership group visited & spoke with the Atlanta Braves

Said The Battery is "the gold standard" for the future of sports stadium/mixed-use development #RaysUp

Rays The Roof @raystherooftb.bsky.social · 1d

Ken Babby just talked about new fan experiences being added to Tropicana Field for the 2026 season

We'll be very interested to see what those new experiences will be #RaysUp

Rays The Roof @raystherooftb.bsky.social · 1d

Zalupski said the main goal with the Rays is to get a stadium ready by Opening Day 2029

Much like the stadium plans in St. Pete, the goal will be a mixed-use development including a stadium, wherever this new location will be

If there's anything that Edwin Uceta was in the 2nd half, he was NAILS

Very much a return to his 2024 self for the Rays

If the World Series walk-off was Brett Phillips' best moment in #Rays uniform, his walk-off HR against the Tigers was No. 2
