The Return of Piazza

According to reports, the Tampa Bay Rays have had internal discussions about bringing in Barry Bonds. Their most prominent, and possibly only, season ticket holder is all for this deal






On Sportscenter this morning Dickie V was promoting the idea that the Rays bring in Bonds. However, he also listed an alternative option:

Trade for Doug Mientkiewicz!!! Just kidding folks. Dickie V wanted to bring in Mike Piazza, who is also available for service. I don't know about everyone else, but I would definitely love to see Mike play again this year, especially in a DH role.

Also, seeing him beat up on the Yankees 19 times a year would be fantastic. And he would have a great influence on these young kids. Finally, I'm sure he could still draw some fans to Tropicana Field, being a legendary slugger, without the baggage that Bonds would bring.

Way to plant this seed Dickie V. Now it's time for the management in Tampa to make this happen. Tampa Bay Rays, you're on the clock.
