But I’d rather have S-Rod and I think most would agree. 29 jacks in AAA is pretty solid and I think he plays good defense.

… would be great while that means that the futures of Aki AND Willy OR Pena with the Rays are questionable, I guess!

He’s only 24, and has been an absolute monster in AAA the past 2 years.

And he appears to be a good defender as well.

• Wilson’s path to the bigs is blocked.
• The Rays have a glaring weakness at Catcher up and down the organization.
• S-Rod+Torres+Sweeney for Kaz seems kind of lopsided.

Yes, I would rather have S-Rod, I’m just sayin’.
