In the end Rays will get nothing for Pena
No way will Stu allow Andrew to offer him arbitration for fear he will accept.
He'll get Arb
but depending on his year, it may not be a bad gamble.

Quote the Chastain:
“The most impressive thing he’s done with his at-bats to this point is he’s been laying off the breaking stuff outside the zone,” Maddon said. “Everybody’s looking at the homers and the doubles, which are great, but I like the approach. A lot of them have been deep counts. I think two of them were full-count homers. … He’s seen a lot of pitches. He’s gone deep in the counts.”
Maddon surmised that if Rodriguez is able to take that approach successfully into the season, he’ll hit home runs.
“And if he’s not, he won’t hit home runs,” Maddon said. “To this point, the things we’ve been talking about, he’s done pretty well with. … You can’t hit if you expand the strike zone.”

Imagine if Longo could lay off that pitch when he's getting antsy
I hope he learns to lay off that pitch when he isn’t doing well, like he’s trying to press. If both can do that, then our lineup looks pretty filthy.
