Rays Your Voice: Rays sign Eflin, what’s next?
Will the Rays continue dipping into the free agent market?
On this week’s episode of Rays Your Voice, I’m joined by Darby Robinson to react to and discuss the Rays' record-breaking signing of RHP Zach Eflin. While the Rays signing anyone to a $40 million deal is surprising, Eflin may not have been the free agent addition fans were expecting heading into this offseason. Darby and I debate what the Eflin deal does to the rest of the free agent market and how this signing impacts the Rays’ objectives.
Last week Danny Russell posted a roundtable where several DRB writers shared their opinion on the Wander Franco contract extension one year later. To wrap up this week’s show, Darby and I ‘Rays’ our voices about that contract and why now isn’t the time to panic about the phenom shortstop.
