They have improved their defense a half a run a game already with their offseason moves. The acquisition of Bartlett at SS may seem minor but will do wonders for their ERA and Garza is a quality third starter. Longoria is the best prospect in the AL and should start at 3B moving Iwamura to 2B and with Crawford, Pena, Upton and hopefully a healthy Baldelli they can produce runs. Kazmir-Shields is easily one of the top five 1-2 punches in baseball and Garza could be nearly as good. Wheeler and Percival should improve their bullpen.

I really like this subforum, futures provide a lot of investment opportunities.

Prospect Joined: Oct 2008 Posts: 90 Location: Costa Rica	#14 Posted: 1/31/2009 2:52:46 PM Love this post. I do think the Devil Rays are a tad deeper this year, however so are the Yanks and Sox. I have no hope for the sad O's until Darth Angelos sells them. Bottom line is how they fared last year against these (yank/redsox) two teams. A respectable 14W & 15L vs. Red Sox and a poor 7 W & 12 L vs. Yanks. I think they fair worst this year so I would lean under, but its super close. Good news for the Rays, they don't have to see Moose anymore.
