There was quite a somber tone out in the left field bleachers at Tropicana Field on Friday night prior to the Tampa Bay Rays taking on the Cincinnati Reds in the first of a weekend three-game series. Friday nights at the Trop are supposed to be a party, when fans having fun with left fielder Randy Arozarena, who's been a Rays fan favorite since joining the club for that incredible postseason run in 2020.
The Rays, after some serious soul-searching, didn't deem Randy to be a worthy long-term investment. To be honest, I don't blame them. Sure, he has a nice smile and some cute poses, but he's struck out nearly 600 times since the start of the 2021 season, he's a liability defensively in left field — the easiest position to play in baseball — and he's hitting .211. His April and May were brutal — .112 and .
i just thought we'd see a few 2025 pieces out of these trades. Some of you might now that I co-own our Seattle Mariners site here on Sports Illustrated too, so I see all of our stories on their minor-league prospects too. They have a catcher named Harry Ford who's their No. 2 overall prospect, and he's doing well in Double-A now.
They also don't hit much. Sure they're only four games out of the wild-card heading into Friday night, but there are eight teams in the AL with a better record. Their schedule is not easy, either.
