Juan Cruz, who went 5-0 with a 3.88 ERA for us last season, signed a minor-league deal with the Pirates.

You were great Kotch, wish you and Damon could stay somehow.

Thanks for the ~magical~ memories, Kotch.

Sonnanstine has a soft spot in a lot of Rays fans heart, mine included. He wasn’t the best after ‘08, but he damn sure tried. And he never complained about being thrown into fire when one of our starters blew it, but he did his best. And I will miss him.

Apparently, Steve Slowinski of DRaysBay will be buying a Thank You ad in Creative Loafing for Sonny. They were also the group that got one for Crawford last season, I believe Pena too. I’ll keep everyone updated about it.

 My thoughts exactly.
