Since the Devil Rays need to submit a team name on May 31st let's go make up some team names for them.

Obviously The Tampa Bay Rays may be their team name but let's get more creative.

1. Floridians

tampon would be very fitting. it makes sense metaphorically. theyre trying to symbolize with the name change that theyre stopping the bleeding. take into consideration the alliteration and i think you got a winner.

i vote tampa bay tampons

Because "Devil" is evil and will keep God-fearing folk away.
