What happens when you take a pitcher, one Robert Ray, who's made all of 16 starts in AA-ball and one in AAA-ball, and put him under the tutelage of Toronto Blue Jays pitching coach guru Brad Arnsberg?
You get an eight-inning, three hit, zero earned runs allowed performance against the Chicago White Sox, a lineup that includes Jermaine Dye, Paul Konerko, and Jim Thome. And the lowering of Ray's ERA to a smooth 3.60.
Sure, Ray's arm may soon fall off (oh fuck off, Arnie haters), but he'll be a better pitcher because of it.
(Zazzle, $21.95. Let me know if you want one.)

God I would love one of those shirts, but I don't have the free cash for one right now.
Just make a bulk order of 2000, and they're only 5 bucks each!
Ahhh free cash......something near and dear to my heart that's for sure; as is destroying the White Sox. It's a great feeling that the game is rarely ever out of reach with this team, exciting and fun to watch. Brad Arnsberg is the shit that's for sure, but I also can't get over Cito and Gene. These guys just feel like perennial Jays to me. Kudos is due however as our pitching has in large part been outstanding.
I want one of those shirts too. Also shameless plug for yesterday's game:

I'm buying one. It has to be done.
I wish we could play the White Sox everyday.
And, Furcifer, there's no such thing as shameless self promotion.
