Been a rough week for the Tampa Bay Rays, but they'll try and stop the bleeding as they look to avoid the sweep vs. the Padres this afternoon.  If not, Evan Longoria won't be able to cheer himself up with a Starbucks Lemon Loaf.  What else does he not like? Find out in Questions From BSG's Daughters.

The big bad AL East. This is where it all starts and ends folks. And while it may be all over but the crying for any non-Yankees to clinch a division title this year, we wanted you to know that BSG hasn’t forgotten about these fellas. Scutaro, Aybar, and Markakis might not be names you’ll hear this year after September, so don’t miss your chance to see these stances in action now. As for Youkilis, we think he’s been fairly covered at this point. Enjoy!
