Yes, we know that this is taking a while! As many of you know, we here at Notinhalloffame.com are slowly generating the top 50 of each major North American sports team.  That being said, we have existing Top 50 lists out, and we always consistently look to update them when we can and based on necessity.  As such, we are very happy to present our post-2023 revision of our top 50 Tampa Bay Rays. As for all of our top 50 players in baseball, we look at the following: 1.  Advanced Statistics. 2.  Traditional statistics and how they finished in Major League Baseball. 3.  Playoff accomplishments. 4.  Their overall impact on the team and other intangibles that are not reflected in a stat sheet. Last year, the Rays went off to a torrid start and made the playoffs but was unable to get past the first round.  There are two new entrants and several elevations, some of which are significant.  However, this is more of a reflection of the franchise’s relative youth and Tampa Bay’s propensity to unload tenured players. As always, we present our top five, which saw no changes: 1. Evan Longoria 2. Carl Crawford 3. Ben Zobrist 4. David Price 5. Kevin Kiermaier You can find the entire list here. Yandy Diaz, who went to his first All-Star Game, and won his first Batting Title, skyrockets from #29 to #10. The enigmatic Outfielder, Randy Arozarena, also made a huge jump.  An All-Star last season, Arozarena climbed to #19 from #30. Now a two-time All-Star, Pitcher Shane McClanahan also had a giant rise in the rank.  He went from #43 to #20. Another Pitcher, Tyler Glasnow, who is now with the Los Angeles Dodgers, went from #45 to #30. The controversial and likely MLB-banned Wander Franco debuts (and likely ends) at #32. Manuel Margot moved to #43 from #50 and is no longer with the Tampa Bay Rays. The last new entrant is Isaac Parades, who enters the list at #47. We thank you for your continued support of our lists on Notinhalloffame.com.
