Locked On Rays- Daily Podcast On The Tampa Bay Rays

Kevin and Ulises continue their ongoing 2020 Tampa Bay Rays player review by analyzing the play of reliever Jalen Beeks and utility player Mike Brosseau.

Some of the talking points:

-What's behind the drastic of improvements of Beeks, before he was shut down in late August due to a torn UCL?

-Brosseau, one of the many heroes of the regular and postseason, again provides steady production at the plate and throughout the infield/outfield. Is he due for more playing time in 2021 and beyond?

In recognition of Friday the 13th (in 2020, no less), Kevin and Ulises discuss some of the "scariest" scenarios that would derail the Tampa Bay Rays from having a successful 2021 campaign. Perhaps it's not adding a viable catcher in the offseason? Or, perhaps the injury bug strikes again to the Rays pitching corps? Baseball trivia, also.

(Due to some scheduling issues, we plan to continue the traditional "Ramblin' Rays segment with a guest listener next week and beyond). If you'd like to be a guest co-host, e-mail [email protected] for more information.

Some of the questions answered:

-Is Adames a potential trade piece, with the slew of Rays middle infield prospects, namely Wander Franco?

-Is 2021 a make-or-break year for Alvarado, following two subpar campaigns?

Baseball America recently released ioutlook on what the Tampa Bay Rays' starting lineup and pitching rotation will look like...in 2024!

And we have some major issues with it. Did the site not take the Rays payroll into account or player contracts into account? Like, it's an all-but guarantee starting pitcher Blake Snell will not be on the roster, not to mention several others.

Instead of complaining, however, Kevin and Ulises offer their more reasonable projections on what a Rays squad in four years could look like, and also get some reaction from Locked On Rays listeners.
