Tampa Bay Rays news and links: Snell pitches into the 7th in his 3rd MLB start

Snell gains experience, Brad Miller keeps hitting, and should teams abandon the role of starting pitcher?

Blake Snell starting is still must watch television for Rays fans. The young lefty pitched well, for the most part, and held Cleveland to quite a bit of weak contact and pitched into the 7th inning.

3 runs (2 earned) thus far on 7 hits over 6 2/3 innings for #Rays Snell in 3rd start. Threw 104 pitches, only 57 strikes

He's still a work in progress, but watching him pitch each week you can see the great promise that Snell possesses.
