[Note] Rays To Sign Carlos Pena

[Edwardex ( )]

The Rays have agreed to a deal with Carlos Pena that will bring the powerful
first baseman back to Tampa Bay, Jon Heyman of CBS Sports tweets. Yahoo's Tim
Brown reported earlier this morning that the Rays were "in pretty deep" with
the Scott Boras client.

Pena, 33, posted a .225/.357/.462 line with 28 home runs in 606 plate
appearances for the Cubs in 2011. He earned $10MM last, when the Rays spent
$42MM on their entire Major League payroll. Pena averaged 36 home runs and a
.238/.368/.516 line in his four seasons in Tampa Bay from 2007-10. Just 9.36%
of 15,700 people who participated in MLBTR's December poll expected Pena to
return to Tampa Bay.

The Rays have added substantial power to the lineup in Pena and Luke Scott.
Casey Kotchman, who played first base for the Rays in 2011, will presumably
sign elsewhere -- possibly in Cleveland -- now that the Rays no longer have
an opening at first base. Potential suitors for Pena such as the Yankees,
Tigers and Indians will have to turn elsewhere for power bats.
