Tampa Bay Rays Disable David Price, Recall Alex Torres

Laundry the Cause of David Price's Poor Start?
It has not been a good start to the season for the reigning AL Cy Young winner, Tampa Bay Rays starting pitcher David Price. Through nine starts he has a 1-4 record with a 5.24 ERA. His 1.44 WHIP is--well, if you know what a WHIP is you know that's not good.
And the problem could be tied into his laundry.
Since mid-January Price has been struggling to deal with blurred...

And there is no secret that the Rays are one of the loosest teams in the sport. It’s all Joe Maddon. On Tuesday, before the Rays...
