No argument here. I said so back in May. They've got great starting pitching and a strong nucleus of homegrowns. They certainly hit paydirt with Pena but at this point he's a complimentary player.
I'm not sure if they're more talented. But they are younger and healthier. Some of our guys are hitting the wall in Jim Rice fashion. This team is getting old fast. The Rays future is bright for the next 2-4 years until payroll concerns hit. On Wed, Oct 15, 2008 at 12:43 PM, William Marino <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>wrote: > I think the Rays are the better team.
