Will Tampa Bay Be a Factor in September?

Well, Tampa Bay is currently (temporarily) out of first place in the AL East thanks to a seven-game losing streak leading into the All-Star break. But the young Rays still have better starting pitching than most teams in their division (including the Yankees). Tampa also has a good, young offensive lineup and some speed to boot on the basepaths. I have tickets for a first-ever trip to Fenway Park in early September. Could that game possibly mean anything when it rolls around?
