Welcome to my little slice of the internet. My name is Jerry Farley, and I’ll be covering the Tampa Bay Devil Rays for the Baseball Historians network of sites. In a lot of ways, I have the easiest job of any of my 29 counterparts because the Devil Rays really have no history. Not yet. The Devil Rays have never won more then 70 games and 2007 will be the teams tenth year of existance. So compared to someone who covers the Yankees or the Cardinals, I have an easy job. The problem is, I have to come up with something.
First and foremost will be covering the 2007 team. While I’m not optimistic about the teams playoff chances, I do think they might have a shot at breaking that 70 win mark. Then again, they play some of the best teams in baseball on a regular basis so who knows.
And when their isn’t breaking Devil Rays news, I’m going to go through the All Devil Rays Team over the past ten years. Should be interesting and it’ll let you see where this has come from. So hopefully you’ll stop by on occasion to check things out.

First off, let me be the first to welcome you to Devil Rays Blogdom.
However, the “All-Time Devil Rays” team is a bit skewed…at some positions, especially.
If there’s anything that you need, DRays Bay will do everything that it can to support the blog.
