Question by Mi Chiamo JAY !!: My head is spinning trying to figure out why the Tampa Bay Rays are playing good baseball in the playoffs?
and the Chicago Cubs were swept out (1-2-3). The Rays have an unbelieveable season and its continuing into the playoffs. How did they go from almost last place to first in one season? Did they make a number of acquisitions to beef up the team?

The rays no doubt have been a suprising team during the season, but I thought for sure they wouldnt be playing as well as they have. And honestly if they keep playing thus way they have a chance to win the world series. They have great pitching and an offense with alot of speed that can put up runs in a hurry.
I believe many of the players on the team were in the Rays minor leagues, but they few good trades that have turned out to be great trades. Like Garza for Young was a great trade in my opinion
