Tampa Bay Rays consider a bold shakeup at first base—could Gold Glove winner Trey Morgan solve their logjam, or become a sought-after trade chip? Questions swirl about Morgan’s ability to transition to left field, and how his bat and glove fit alongside Jonathan Aranda and Josh Lowe as the Rays weigh future roster moves for 2026 and beyond.

Ulises and Kevin break down Morgan’s Minor League production, Tampa Bay’s high-leverage offseason decisions, and the dilemma of trading premium prospects to address needs at catcher or in the bullpen. Plus, the odds of Carson Williams capturing AL Rookie of the Year honors spark debate—can he crack the starting lineup with Taylor Walls and Junior Caminero in the mix? Get the latest take on Yandy Díaz’s future, Rays’ defensive philosophy, and which fierce American League rivals pose the biggest threats next season.
