Around the Twitterverse: Price, the Garfoose, and Tebow

Many Rays players are prominent on Twitter, and some, such as David Price, are known as some of the best in the MLB. Since Twitter has become a great way for players to connect with fans, I will be starting a weekly feature at RCG taking a look around the Rays Twitterverse. I will share the best tweets from Rays related accounts. The first installment of Around the Twitterverse is after the jump.

As he normally does, David Price (@DAVIDprice14) took to Twitter following his big contract signing today:

— David Price (@DAVIDprice24) January 17, 2012

Largest for a 1st time arbitration eligible player!! Got a good agent! Kershaw=more RT @IraKates: @DAVIDprice14 hope you got a sweet deal!
— David Price (@DAVIDprice24) January 17, 2012

David is one of the great guys in the game and it is great to see him get paid. Now, here are some more tweets from the Rays Twitter master:

On his goals for the season:

World series champs RT @TampabayNacho: @DAVIDprice14 in this season What is your goal ?

Showing his heart is in the right place:

On being a Ray for life:

The always funny former Ray and author Dirk Hayhurst had something to say about this one:

Has Pujols taught you nothing @DAVIDprice14 !?!?! NEVER say you will be with a team forever... It will only hurt you
— Dirk Hayhurst (@TheGarfoose) January 17, 2012

And finally, the promised Tebow tweet. BJ Upton shows his affection for Tebow:

Tim Tebow continues to haunt my teams. First FSU and now my Steelers. Tired of seeing him!

That’s all I have for this week. Be sure to tune in next week for more from the Rays Twitterverse.
