		The Rays obviously suffer when compared with their cousins in Florida, who have two world titles to show for their occasional pains, and to a lesser degree when compared with their expansion mates in Arizona.

		Devil Rays come visit teams in the FSL's Western Division, well, you have at least part of the idea of when that will come.
