The Rays have gotten off to one of the most dominant starts we’ve ever seen from an MLB team.

A couple of weeks ago, Roberts suggested the Rays are probably only playing so well because they’re cheating. While most of us around the tri-state area knew it was a joke, it angered some people down in Florida.
It also irked Rays players, who had t-shirts made up to respond to Roberts’ “allegations”:
