GM STOOL has been up to no good wielding and dealing a competitor in the AL Southeast. The Rays have been rebuilding for a couple of years and Stool is at it again, trading away spec's and picks for WIN NOW talent. Stooolfan has been know for jumping the gun and leaving small windows for his team to win a title, only time will tell if Stoolfan's rebuild has been successful. Now time to announce and Introduce you to the 2020 Tambay Devil Rays!!!
STARTING LINEUP:
Eloy Jimenez, Catcher, 22 yrs
: Starting at catcher is the young prospect the Rays drafted in 2013 with the 2nd Overall pick in the draft. The youngster was 16 and thought to be a a superstar. With a tough minor league career and many fundamental problems the catcher has not developed as planned. However, the Rays have put a lot of training and money into this youngster, only time will tell if he will develop into an all-star caliber catcher. Flashes of brilliant power hitting are shown when he bats, but he must develop further to become a nuisance at the plate.
Norman Rolfes, First Base, 23 yrs
: Was drafted by the New York Mets in 2015 with the 10th overall pick. He was then traded to the Rays in a deal that sent Taz and Mad Bum to the Mets in exchange for a lot of hitting prospects. Rolfes has been a solid MLB 1B, with high OBP and base stealing ability he will look to score many runs behind the power hitters in the Ray's lineup.
Mookie Betts, Second Base, 26 yrs
: Mookie was drafted 4th overall by the Texas Rangers in 2011. The youngster was then traded to BOS where many GM's thought he would retire due to their GM being attached to his players. However, Stoolfan convinced the GM to send Mookie for scraps. Backed with a solid lineup Moookie looks to get on base and use his speed to torment pitchers on the basepaths. Teammates look forward to producing rbi's with him in the lineup.
Kyle Seager, Thirdbase, 31 yrs
: Seager is one of the veteran hitters on the Rays. Drafted 14th overall by the Chicago Cubs and was in a deal that sent Seager and a package of players to Pittsburgh and sent Hanley to the Chicago Cubs, with Pitt rebuilding Tampa acquired the veteran slugger and have big plans for him to produce in the Devil Ray lineup.
Aledmys Diaz, Shortstop, 28 yrs
; The trouble maker of the league. A locker room nightmare who refuses to play any position but SS. His defense at SS is horrendous, Shale could play better defense.....However, Stoolfan brought this headcase in to simply....drive in runs. Diaz is here for his bat and boy can this guy rake. In his prime of his career Tampa Bay expects him to lead the team with his bat and hope they ignore just how awful his glove is....his fan club will not include the rays pitching staff.
Charlie Tilson, Leftfield, 26 yrs
: Tilson was acquired by the Rays in the same trade that sent Mookie to the Rays. The league is still puzzled why the trade was made, but the package duo of Tilson and Mookie...the Rays are excited what the youngsters can bring to the team.
Donald Countess, Centerfield, 32 yrs: The old man of the team is currently competing with the San Diego Padres for a World Series Title. Apart of the massive offseason moves that unload TB's minor league system and acquire prime players. This speedster looks to get on base and score many runs in the Tampa Bay offense when he is shipped over in the offseason. Stoolfan will lean on Countess to lead by example and mentor his younger players into All-Star Caliber hitters.
Anthony Heald, Rightfield, 29 yrs
: Currently competing with the San Diego Padres for a World Series Title. Apart of the massive offseason moves that unload TB's minor league system and acquire prime players. Heald expects to steal bases and hit the long ball. With a lot of OBP guys surrounding him. Heald cant wait to boost his stats in the Rays offense.
Patrick Wisdom, DH, 27 yrs
: Wisdom originates in the SD system and with the wake of moves is coming to TB from ARZ to follow his former TB teamates. He is currently on the tradeblock with disapointment Jon Singleton to upgrade at DH. We shall see what Stoolfan has up his sleave to acquire another pitcher or upgrade at DH.
The Pitching Rotation:
The pitching rotation is start studded it reminds me of the TB rays that had: Taz, Gabbs, Harvey, MadBum, Mark B! With a bullpen anchored by Rosenthal and Petrica. This rotation is lacking a 4th starter and Stoolfan will look to trade or aquire via FA a starter for the regular season. However, his playoff rotation and pen is absolutely filthy!
Jose Fernandez, Starting Pitcher, 26 yrs
Patrick Corbin, Starting Pitcher, 29 yrs
Paul Ryan, Starting Pitcher, 30 yrs
Drew Storen, Closer, 31 yrs
Arthur West, Reliever, 29 yrs
Aroldis "Cuban Missile" Chapman, Closer
GM Stoolfan is hoping to compete for 4-6 seasons and the goal. WORLD SERIES TITLE OR BUST!!!
