Pitchers and catchers went through their first workout on Tuesday in Port Charlotte and off-season acquisition Jose Molina was one of the day's big storylines.

Rays' starting pitching depth scary good

Via Fox Sports  |  February 23, 2012
Normally, I feel sorry for the Tampa Bay Rays. Not this time. Oh, the Rays still face their usual low-revenue problems while trying to compete with the big-budget New York Yankees and Boston Red Sox in the AL East. But as the Rays try to pick their best five starting pitchers from a talented group of six, they should not expect a pity party -- particularly when the number of qualified...

Via The Last Angry Fan  |  February 22, 2012
The Tampa Bay Rays plan on giving away this half-Don Zimmer, half-teddy bear monstrosity, known affectionately as “Zim Bear,” during the upcoming major league season.  If for some reason you wish to scar your children for life, or are looking for that special gift for your family dog to gnaw on, then make sure you find your way to Tropicana Field for the June 29 game...

The Rays' Zim-Bear giveaway is horrifying

Via The Outside Corner  |  February 22, 2012
This is Zim-Bear, and it will be running through your head for quite awhile, won't it? The Tampa Bay Rays will be giving this, erm, lovely toy away on June 29th during their game against the Detroit Tigers. We've seen some really odd giveaways during our time, but I do believe that this is the first time I can recall a special advisor (not a coach, or a player...but an advisor...

Sam Fuld’s take on Game 162

ROGER MOONEY “I like to consider myself a coordinated person. I make a living running after baseballs in the outfield, sometimes dodging bullpen mounds, dancing along unpadded walls, even leaping over oncoming teammates on occasion.
