The Tampa Bay Rays are close to being sold to a new ownership group led by Patrick Zalupski, with current owner Stuart Sternberg retaining a stake for now. Rick Workman's investment in the Rays has impacted the Orlando Dreamers' efforts to bring an MLB franchise to Orlando, suggesting the team will likely stay in Tampa. On the field, pitcher Ryan Pepiot is dealing with fatigue but expects to pitch again this season, while first baseman Jonathan Aranda is recovering from a wrist injury and showing promising signs of returning before season's end.

Officials have unveiled the design for a proposed $1.7 billion Major League Baseball stadium in Orlando, which would be the largest private investment ever for a publicly owned MLB stadium. The stadium is expected to hold about 45,000 fans and would require $700 million in private funds. The proposed location is the tourist district on International Drive. The road to a professional baseball team in Orlando can happen in two ways: MLB can expand its current roster of teams, or an existing team would move to Central Florida.
