The Trade Deadline is a little over 24 hours away, and the swirling rumors and chaos around this time is always a rollercoaster of emotions for Rays fans. The Rays made their first move of deadline season trading for LF David Peralta.
Peralta is a professional hitter, a terror to right-handed pitchers, a wildly charismatic guy and top-tier teammate.
Rays cornering the market on extravert OFs who are gold on the mic to go with Brett Phillips and Harold Ramirez.
