The Rays are spending some money in free agency on old vets. They expect to contend. They just got the #2 overall draft pick. They're in a good mood. So they trade for a 5-8 win SS and it only costs them 6 years of 2023 Javy Baez, a #4 SP, and a RF I would have nontendered.

Put down the eggnog. You’re cut off.
I haven't really run through my Rays prospect rankings for 2026, but I have a hard time seeing Carson Williams in my top five, and I don't think we have a single top 100 prospect, so that tells you what I think of Carson Williams. He looked awful in AAA, he looked awful in the big leagues, his defense ranked as below average in two of the three metrics and average in the third, He struck out a ton at both levels, and when he put bat on ball, he didn't hit it hard. I think Tristan Gray has a better 2026 than Carson Williams. I'll get to watching video after the new year, but Carson Williams gives me zero excitement. You know my thoughts on Shane Baz. If I could get 4 years of Neto for this package, I would do it in a heartbeat.
