Meyers, to me, is that big-time bat that they’ve missed, along with Evan Longoria , the last couple of times they’ve made the playoffs. With the way he’s emerged is a game-changer for this Tampa Bay team. I love this team going forward.” On the Dodgers: “I love the way they’ve played lately but I got to make sure Hanley Ramirez in back in the lineup and healthy. Ramirez, even more than Yasiel Puig, has been the driving force behind the Dodgers of late. His health is going to be the key thing for L.A. down the stretch.” To see what else Morosi has to say about this weekend’s matchups, click here: http://bit.ly/15IvjVb GUINNESS INTERNATIONAL CHAMPIONS CUP FINAL: REAL MADRID/CHELSEA ON FOX SOCCER – TONIGHT, Wednesday, Aug. 7 (9:00 PM ET) FOX Soccer presents the conclusion to the 2013 Guinness International Champions Cup when two of world soccer’s greatest powers meet for the title as Cristiano Ronaldo and Real Madrid take on Brazilian youngster Oscar and Chelsea.
