Only four days away.
Let's hope we wheel out 21-year-old Francisco Cervelli, the catcher permanently and needlessly paralized* during a Spring Training game, when a Tampa thug bowled him over at home plate.
After he throws out the game's symbolic first ball, while tearful fans console themselves over the sight of a young man needlessly cut down**, we'll then bestow an award for courage upon Shelley Duncan -- whose arm was broken while defending himself from several Ray hooligans at second base*** in spring training.
The most important series of the season, against our Number One rival is approaching.
Next week.
Gear up for it, Yanks.
Take a few days off.
Enjoy the holiday.
The series starts Monday.
*Note: This is a complete fabrication, but the Rays don't have to know this.
**Repeating: The key is making the Rays think he's actually hurt.
***Shelley got hurt this week in Scranton. But do the Rays have to know this?
