Tampa Bay Rays: Should Target Free Agent Joe Smith

The Tampa Bay Rays came into the off-season with an eye towards improving the bullpen in 2017. With the off-season nearly over we haven’t seen them do much of anything in regards to adding another arm, with the exception of Rule 5 pick Kevin Gadea.

They currently have plenty of relievers on the 40-man roster to fill the bullpen but they definitely could at least add some competition and there’s always the possibility of a trade. Adding at least one more arm on a 1-year deal (or minor league deal) could greatly benefit the roster.
