Potential Rays Owner Considers HCC for Stadium Amid Florida MLB Uncertainty
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.
