AL East Preview: Rays & Orioles - The Bronx Pinstripes Show

It’s opening week! Today we’re previewing the Rays and Orioles. Rays: Neil Solondz, the Rays radio pre/post game announcer, joined us to talk about all the changes to the Rays roster, why they needed a new look to compete for the next few years, losing the face of their franchise in Evan Longoria, how the fanbase is dealing with the moves, Chris Archer’s status, the Rays 4-man rotation, and a possible new ballpark in downtown Tampa. Orioles: Brittany Ghiroli from MLB.com joined us to talk about what we can expect from this Orioles team as they head into a pivotal year for the organization, how the team will react at the trade deadline, the improved pitching rotation, and the landscape of the Orioles minor league system.
