Full Story »Starting Pitcher Waiver Wire Streamers for Week 17 (Part 2)
Tampa Rays manager Joe Maddon has never been one to follow conventional thinking. The Rays, winners of their last seven, just completed a two-game sweep of the Cardinals in St. Louis, and Maddon’s starting lineups for the series had his starting pitchers hitting eighth followed by Kevin Kiermaier in the nine-hole.
