The Rays begin 2021 in Miami, end in NYC.
The Rays have released the 2021 regular season schedule, a surprise in the midst of a pandemic that has dramatically altered the 2020 schedule, and which the CDC estimates only 10% of the population has been exposed to thus far.

Summer camp is underway, and let’s face it — this is not like anything any of us have ever experienced. There is baseball happening — or at least baseball practice happening.

In 1994, when the Major League Baseball season was cut short by a strike (which managed to do something all previous world wars were unable to do:...
