If I'm a Rays fan, I would be really pissed. For the first time in your teams history you got a chance to win something, and they didn't trade for the extra bat they need. What a bunch of cheap asses.

I am happy that the Cards and the Brewers weren't able to fortify their respective bullpens.

Of course they can still get a transaction done thru waivers but at this moment good news for the Cubs.

I can't say I blame them for not making a move. From what I've read because they have such a good minor league system teams were trying to rob them. I wouldn't give up David Price or Reid Brignac for Jason Bay or Raul Ibanez either. There's no reason to overpay at the beginning of what should be a long run of winning teams. They can still try to pull off a waiver deal to improve the team this year and not hurt the long term future of the franchise.

if I'm a Rays fan, I'd have shown up to the ballpark this year early and often, rather than jumping on the boat miles after it had started sailing...
