PrintEveryone seems to think that the Tampa Bay Devil Rays have a well run organization right now with lots of promise. Alot of people would like the M's front office to be more like the Rays. I agree.Our home nine should change their name to the "Marines".
Not only would the name change inspire the players to a drastic turnaround in 2009; it would boost marketing by being able to sell a whole new set of fan gear.
That's my two cents.

We no longer use pennies here.
All monies are now rounded up to the nearest nickel. So your two cents are useless to us.
But...but..."Mariners" already has a nautical theme--it's derived from the same root.
...and the “Rays” are sun-themed now, for some damn reason.
I’m confused.
They should have just changed their names to the Tampa Rays
Silence our voice and you leave us no choice
It's because of the weather
It rains every afternoon really hard for about 20 minutes. It would be pretty hard to fix the field every day after that.

I'm not sure that's new,
but it sure applies here.

If we want to be more like the Rays
I really think we need to trade something to the Dodgers for their amazing young OF. Kemp, Ethier, or even Delwyn Young are all great young players.
That's the best feature of winning a playoff series on the road.

What about the actual winning part?
Do note I’m still new to the idea of winning series left and right.

If you beat a big market team like, say, the Mets
they show you pictures of the fans crying and you get to pretend to drink their tears.
