Somehow, the Tampa Bay Rays always seem to find a way.Projected to finish third in the AL East as a roughly 88-win team, Tampa Bay has gotten off to a flying start and entered the weekend as MLB’s last unbeaten team at 7-0. The Rays opened the season with sweeps of the Detroit Tigers and Washington Nationals, and entering Saturday they led MLB by a huge margin for most runs scored per game (7.57) while allowing the third fewest (2.57).Their offense has been loud too, cranking 18 home runs over the first seven games while the pitching staff had only allowed 17 earned runs total.That’s what the Red Sox are going to have to deal with when they play the Rays four times in St. Petersburg over the next few days.Boston was always going to have its hands full competing in a loaded AL East this season, but the fact that Tampa Bay appears to have rediscovered its mojo after a so-so 2022 is bad news.

But the depth scoring showed up at crunch time in the division race, right after consecutive games in which MacKinnon’s and Rantanen’s individual milestones stole the show.After Dallas topped Vegas in a shootout, Colorado needed the win to remain tied at 102 points atop the division. The Avs still lead the Stars by point percentage with a game in hand — four remaining to Dallas’ three.Malgin had gone eight consecutive games (and 12 of 13) w...1 dead, 2 hospitalized after suspected DUI driver sends cars flying off PCH and onto rocks in Pacific Palisades
