Interesting signing by the Rays today. Certainly fills the need for a right handed bat. He was of course a liability in the field, but the Rays have him penciled in at DH. He has averaged almost 28 HR's a season for 9 years with the Phillies as well as almost 92 RBI's. Would immediately become the teams 2nd best power hitter behind Pena and dwarf the Ray's DH production from 2008. The negatives are the batting average and strikeouts, but putting him somewhere around 5th or 6th in the lineup looks pretty nice. What do you think?
Until next time,
