Welcome back to Rays Reacts! Our site-hosted survey, brought to you by FanDuel.
For our first Reacts survey since DRaysBay’s shift to the new platform — that everyone loves and has had no problems! — begins with the prince that was promised.
Is Carson Williams here to stay?
It’s nearly UNANIMOUS! Wow! There’s no denying Williams has brought a shock to the Rays lineup, and through his plus defense has already looked on equal footing to the other veteran shortstops this year Taylor Walls and Ha-Seong Kim (both currently injured).
Can his strikeout rate survive at the major league level? Does that even matter in what could be a lost season? We shall see!
And speaking of this season’s results, we took a heat check on the Rays win outlook:
In this poll I asked whether the Rays will get anywhere from under 80 wins to over 90… and that last category didn’t get a single vote. Reasonable! But also sad.
The good news though is that 70% of respondents seem to have a positive enough outlook to believe the Rays will remain competitive through September.
As always, if you would like to put your money where your mouth is, you are welcomed to do so responsibly with our friends at FanDuel.
