November 21, 200520 yr Devil Rays name coaching staff Associated Press TAMPA, Fla. - Former major leaguers Mike Butcher and George Hendrick joined the Tampa Bay Devil Rays on Monday as part of new manager Joe Maddon's coaching staff for next season. Butcher was hired as pitching coach after spending the past three seasons as a roving pitching instructor for the Los Angeles Angels. Hendrick, the Dodgers' minor league hitting coordinator in 2005, was named first base coach. Maddon, hired last week as Lou Piniella's successor, also included two of the candidates who interviewed the Devil Rays managerial vacancy - retaining incumbent third base coach Tom Foley and promoting Triple-A manager Bill Evers to bench coach. Steve Henderson was named hitting coach and Bobby Ramos takes over as bullpen coach. Former Boston manager and New York Yankees coach Don Zimmer remains in his role as senior baseball advisor. http://www.miami.com/mld/miamiherald/news/...ws/13226223.htm

November 22, 200520 yr Author The restaurants and whatnot they have on their "club level" are pretty good, best part is anyone can go to them and you don't have to be a season ticket holder. I always enjoy going to D-Rays games.
November 22, 200520 yr Damn. That didn't take long. How long is it going to take Girardi to finish filling out his staff?
