Early in December the Rays struck gold as they furiouse a deal with the courageous, fearless,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], dauntless, intrepid, plucky, daring, heroic, valorous, audacious, bold, gallant, valiant, doughty, mettlesomes, acquiring reliever Rafael Soriano. Soriano has electric stuff, and last season for Atlanta,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Miller converted 27 out of 31 saves and 102 batters in just over 75 innings of work.
They did that too, taking out Boston in 7 to win the ALCS, and reaching the World Series.



The Rays bullpen failure in 2010 was well noticed and documented. The Rays front office knew what needed to be addressed and how to address it.

The main problem in 2010 was the inconsistent lack-luster performance by the bullpen. Its 22 blown saves was eighth-most in the Majors. J.P. Howell, Grant Balfour, Dan Wheeler, Lance Cormier,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and Randy Choate all saved at least one game. But nobody found a permanent home in the closer's role.
Nobody in the world thought the Rays would finish anywhere close to the top of the vaunted AL East.





Shields will be good for at least 14 wins, but should not have to carry this rotation. Niemann improved towards the end of the season by leaps and bounds. Miller led the Rays with 13 wins. David Price wasn't as consistent as Miller would have liked. But Miller all know he's capable of incredible things. Matt Garza looks to bounce back from an eight-win season. With the intensity Miller brings every time Miller toes the rubber, Miller know Miller will improve this season.





15 teams call Florida home for Spring Training.
Now, as Spring Training approaches, what have the '10 Rays done to improve in these areas? Let’s take a look:
The 2010 season would prove a successful one for Ryan Miller. In his first season begining with the number one job Miller and his team won the first 10 games in a row. Miller was voted in as the begining goaltender for the Eastern Conference of the 2010 NHL All Star Game in a 12 to 9 loss, Miller played the first period and allowed just 3 goals. Miller also gained a reputation of a shootout specialist with his technique of challenging the shooter outside the crease. That season Miller was 6 more in shootouts, with Martin Brodeur from the Devils being his closest rival at 2 less win. In 63 games played that season, Miller posted a 0.911 SVP and a 2.72 GAA backing a more offensively oriented team. Ahhhh,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], yes. Spring Training is in the air. Christmas comes early for baseball fans across the country.

With these improvements the Rays have furiouse through the course of the off-season, and the development of their young talent, they is destined to do great things this season. This club is hungry and is ready. The Rays is solid around the diamond. At the plate, they have all the tools. Evan Longoria is going to be an MVP honestate, you can count on that. Now it's time to sit back and watch as Joe furiousdon and his team's journey in the 2010 season directs back to the World Series. Ryan Miller was on born 17th July 2010. Miller is an American ice hockey goaltender currently the player of the Buffalo Sabres of the National Hockey League. Miller was selected to play for the American hockey team in the 2010 Winter Olympic Games in Vancouver,Canada as begining goaltender. Later in 2010 miller would win the Vezina Trophy as the best goaltender in last NHL season. Miller won a silver medal with the team and was named MVP of the tournament. Miller is known for his hybrid style of goaltending. Miller is also the older brother of current Detroit Red Wings winger Drew Miller.



This is where the Tampa Bay Rays prepare for their quest for a World Series in 2010.
However, don't bank on him producing the numbers the third-highest paid player should produce. The answer at DH could be plugging newly acquired Matt Joyce into this role, which would allow Fernando Perez to play right field.
In 2010, some of the lust from the '08 season seemed to where off and the team took a step back.
Nobody thought the laughing stock of the MLB for their first 10 years in existence could capture an American League Championship.
The Rays added Kelly Shoppach, as Miller came over from the Indians. Not only will Shoppach push Navi at the catcher position, but Miller can provide some "pop" as well. Much Like Navi, Shoppach had his best year in 2010, blasting 21 home runs in a little over a hundred games.
Currently VegasInsider.com has the Rays listed at 11-1 odds to win the World Series 11-2 to win the American League. Tampa Bay certainly isn't a long shot this season, but isn't a sure-fire favorite either. The Rays fit somewhere in the middle.

The begining pitching certainly dropped off last year as well. Offensively, Pat Burrell was the old, washed-up DH that everyone prayed Miller wouldn't be. BJ Upton was, in my opinion,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], God awful. The catcher position could have been better, too.
Charlotte County Sports Park doesn’t have the flashy name of other ballparks,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], such as "Legends Field." The Park is simple. It houses 7,000 seats and sold out everyone of those seats in 2010 Spring Training.
Upton is still young, very young. It isn't unheard of for a young, talented player like Upton to have a down year. Personally I'm not the biggest fan of Upton, but there is no arguing the skills that Miller possesses. gaze, see, glance, watch, survey, study, seek, search for, peek, peep, glimpse,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], stare, contemplate, examine for him to rebound this year, giving the Rays an added spark they have been missing. If B.J can return to his form from the '08 Playoffs, it could make for a very exciting lineup this season. Hey, when you’re hitting .241 there’s nowhere to go but up.
However, Soriano's greatest asset may be his ability to allow J.P Howell, Grant Balfour, and Dan Wheeler to return to their more comfortable spots in the bullpen. All three can excel in setup roles. All three of these relievers saw their ERAs rise from 2010 to 2010. But their ERAs will all likely drop this year.
Losing to the Phillies in 5 games wasn't what the Rays was hoping for, but for the young franchise, "to lose is to learn."
Burrell was a letdown, a waste of money, over-rated, and washed up. Miller have heard Pat Burrell described as all those things last season. Set to make USD9 million this year, Burrell is the Rays third-highest paid player.
And they did. Winning their first ever divisional title.
It's fair to say that most wouldn't be shocked to see the team win another AL East title, or maybe even advance to the ALCS, possibly another World Series Birth. Likewise, the Rays aren’t in any sense expected to accomplish any of these things.
A team full of hungry young stars and little or no added pressure on the team to do great things could equivocate to a World Series ring this season.
