Former Toronto Blue Jays Star Struggling With New Team
Earlier this season, a former Blue Jays superstar (Robbie Ray) was traded to the San Diego Padres (via the San Francisco Giants).
The SF Giants wrote (via X) on August 3: “The #SFGiants and San Diego Padres completed a trade today with RHP Miguel Mendez and IF Joniel Hernandez joining the Giants in exchange for LHP Robbie Ray and cash considerations.”
Ray has struggled in a big way recently.
He has allowed 10 earned runs over his last two starts.
Social Media On Ray
Here’s what people have been saying about Ray:
@TooMuchMortons_: “Watching Robbie Ray is like watching Blake Snell but if Snell was bad”
@GiantHotTakes: “Robbie Ray has a 5.35 ERA with the Padres. Buster Posey fleeced another deal. Credit where it is due.”
Alex Pavlovic: “Rafael Devers hit a grand slam off old friend Robbie Ray. That’s his 36th homer of the year and he’s now just four RBI away from 100.”
@RSI_Lance: “Robbie Ray is a tough watch.”
@dowen1960: “Robbie Ray is really bad. Really bad.”
@lluvrofsports: “robbie ray has got to be the worst pitcher to watch pitch… he drives me so insane”
