The Rays Are Going For It — And I Believe They Can Win the AL East

The Rays made it clear at the trade deadline: **they believe they’re good enough to win the AL East.** Tampa Bay added Freddy Peralta and Liam Hicks without sacrificing its top-end talent or mortgaging the future. I break down why I loved the Rays’ deadline moves, why Peralta could be a perfect Tampa Bay reclamation project, and why I believe this team has what it takes to beat out either the Yankees or Red Sox and **win the AL East in 2026.**
