They play another agaonst the Royals before 3 vs the Orioles, and 3 vs the Mariners.

The Rays have played the Yankees, Red Sox, Tigers, Blue Jays and Twins. They play 3 vs the Angels, then 3 vs the Rangers.

One of these are not like the other.

Rangers fans really appreciate it. Now Mets get to enjoy Frankie too.

I sympathise with Mets fans.

On a positive note, because both of them were Type B free agents, the Jays will get 2 extra draft picks because they signed elsewhere. A little pain last season for the Jays should result in future gain for the team.
