Brett Rutherford and Darby Robinson discuss an interesting series against the Yankees that saw the benches clear twice in one inning in Sunday's finale. However, cooler heads prevailed, and the Rays took two of three from the cellar dwellers of the AL East. Brett and Darby also discuss some news around the league, including Baltimore losing All-Star closer Felix Bautista with an elbow injury, and the Angels losing two-way phenom Shohei Ohtani.  To wrap up the show, Brett and Darby discuss Carl Crawford's induction into the Rays Hall of Fame, and predict who may be included in the Class of 2024.   Learn more about your ad choices.

Brett Rutherford and Darby Robinson discuss a successful road trip for the Rays, who are still trailing the Orioles by three games in the race for the AL East title. Curtis Mead made his big league debut over the weekend, but Brett and Darby discuss what his role will be on the team for the remainder of the season.  In more worrying news, Shane McClanahan was placed on the 15-day IL with forearm tightness. At first, Kevin Cash told Rays fans that he wasn't worried, but now we have no choice but to be worried after Marc Topkin reported that McClanahan would be flying to California to get a second opinion on his injury.  To close the show, Brett and Darby wax poetic about the defensive prowess of Wander Franco. While Franco was nearly a flawless prospect, many believed he wouldn't be able to stick at shortstop. This season, Franco has become one of the game's best shortstops, and he may be on his way to a Gold Glove.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Brett Rutherford and Darby Robinson discuss the return of Tyler Glasnow and the state of the pitching staff with Pete Fairbanks and Josh Fleming recently added to the injured list. As we enter the summer months and have already seen the Rays make one trade to bolster the pen, how many more will they make and what caliber of reliever will they go after?  Brett and Darby talk about a recent newspaper article that attempts to portray Wander Franco as a headache in the Rays' clubhouse, but is the 22-year-old phenom really ruffling that many feathers this season? As he seems to be one of the frontrunners in the AL MVP race, they 'Rays' their voices about Wander's impact on the team.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Brett Rutherford and Darby Robinson discuss the imminent return of Tyler Glasnow to the active roster, and where the Rays rotation stands once he is added. The bullpen looks less solidified, but what are the Rays options when it comes to trying to add? It's too early for a big trade, and is going after one of the big-name relievers worth it assuming you'd have to give up a top prospect? Brett and Darby discuss some potential relievers that may be on the market this summer.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Brett Rutherford and Darby Robinson discuss the decision to send Taj Bradley back down to AAA, where the plan is to stretch him out to pitch on four days rest when he had been pitching on five to open the season. While there are claims that the Rays are manipulating his service time, Brett and Darby argue that this is best for Taj's short- and long-term future. The Rays took three of four this weekend from the White Sox, and this episode was recorded before Sunday's rollercoaster game that saw the Rays bullpen hand the game to Chicago. Brett and Darby discuss what has gone wrong for the White Sox in recent years. To end the show, they 'Rays' their voices about the decision to open the upper deck for the upcoming home series against the Yankees, and discuss why $40 for a ticket to a premium game isn't something to cry over.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Brett Rutherford and Darby Robinson talk about the end of the Rays' historic winning streak, and how their depth will be tested after a major injury to one of their most dominant starting pitchers. In the first true 'Rays Your Voice' segment of the 2023 season, Brett and Darby ponder what it would take to even entertain a trade for Shohei Ohtani this summer. Learn more about your ad choices.

Brett Rutherford and Darby Robinson talk about the Rays' historic 9-0 start to the season, led in large part by star shortstop Wander Franco, who is absolutely living up to the hype. They discuss injuries to Jose Siri and Taylor Walls, and how the Rays will fill their spots on the roster. The only negative through nine games was the lone start from Josh Fleming. Brett and Darby debate if there are better options in Durham, and if any of them are worth calling up to fill the #5 spot in the rotation before Tyler Glasnow returns from an oblique injury. Finally, they look ahead to the first AL East series of the season, a four-game set at home against the Red Sox. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Ep. 119: Former U.S. Bank CEO who currently serves on the board of Mastercard, Mayo Clinic, Dow Chemical, and Wells Fargo says sports taught him that win or lose, you tend to have more fun when you are in the game. So, instead of setting a goal to play a certain position, he always did whatever he could to be a utility player, in sports and business. "I've always believed that putting your hand up to do something demonstrates curiosity," he said. "And then, if you do it well, it demonstrates competency." As Richard made himself more valuable, the job titles also fell into place. All aspiring business leaders would do well to take to heart Davis' mantra to "set a direction, never a goal."
