Rays vs. Angels game 1 preview: The return of Cron

Following an exciting sweep over the Kansas City Royals, the Rays battle the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim in a four game set at Angel Stadium.

The Rays head into play tonight at 19-22, the exact same record through 41 games as they had a season ago. Remember when the national media accused the Rays of being cheap and not committed to winning? The Angels’ crosstown rival Dodgers, a team that was surely committed to winning, is mired at 16-26.

Rays slugger C.J. Cron, who has been a big part of Tampa Bay’s respectability makes his return to Anaheim tonight.
