Pete Fairbanks is most likely gone.

Christopher Morel is gone.

The Rays are wheeling and dealing, already crafting up a different roster for the 2026 season within the first month or so of the offseason.

Plus, Tropicana Field is back to its former self as all 24 panels have been installed on the roof!

With the $1.7 billion offer for the Rays from Patrick Zalupski's ownership group formally accepted and finalized, a new era with the franchise has officially begun.

The Rays certainly aren't the only team to have recent ownership changes, so we talked with Orioles podcaster Josh Sroka & beat writer Andy Kostka about what the David Rubenstein era has been like so far.

This is not a drill, folks.

THIS IS NOT A DRILL

Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reported today that all other 29 MLB owners have officially approved the sale of the Tampa Bay Rays to the Patrick Zalupski-led ownership group as the formal sale of the team is expected to be finalized later this week.

The Steinbrenner Field Era has ended, the Rays won both the home opener and home finale, they finished above .500 at home and now, new ownership will be put in place by season's end as a new era of the Rays has dawned upon us.

It's almost over for the Rays, in large part due to lose five of sevela games over the last few weeks to the Cleveland Guardians.

A seven-game winning streak was sandwiched in the middle, but sitting around .500, losing 3 of 4 to a team with 20 games left does NOT help a team's playoff chances.

As the title says, we've officially hit our five-year anniversary. Rays The Roof began as a way for us to talk about the Rays and have fun back in 2020 and we had no clue it would turn into this.

Plus, the Rays are playing pretty damn well right now, so that's always fun to see, especially as September is now here.

At least the boys are showing out at the plate because despite four series wins in their last six series overall, the Rays are currently playing .500 baseball and need to make quite the push to be anywhere close to the playoff hunt.

Away, away, away!

The Rays have embarked on a two-week West Coast road trip that could very well make or break the rest of the season.

How will they do? That's for us to find out.
