Tampa Bay Rays: Future Rays honing their game in the minors

In my last piece, I wrote about how the Tampa Bay Rays might benefit from looking at their farm system to create a real homegrown team. That’s a nice idea for a number of reasons but you need talent to make it happen.

The core group of Triple-A players may offer some nice pieces to the puzzle but only Blake Snell looks like a real big league talent. However, if you look one rung down on the ladder to the Double-A Montgomery Biscuits, the stars really start to shine.

It starts with pitching and Montgomery is loaded with talented starters.
