Tampa Bay Devil Rays
 PROFILE
The Tampa Bay Devil Rays might want to consider going deep sea fishing rather than playing baseball. The team has finished in the celler of the American League East since joining the league as an expansion franchise in 1998. The team is hoping a beefed up lineup including outfielder Ben Grieve and new COO John McHale, Jr. (formerly president of the Detroit Tigers) will help it hook more wins in future seasons. The team's roster also features home run hitters Greg Vaughn and Fred McGriff, who are right at home in hitter-friendly Tropicana Field. Vincent Naimoli, with a 17% stake in the team, leads the investment group that owns the Devil Rays.
