Tampa Bay Rays All-Time Team

[Ben (Rays GM)]

Criteria: quality of player, longevity on TB, contributions to team (including World Series Rings - WSR).
Although the initial team is 25 players, I don't intend on keeping it that way. As I induct more players, former members won't necessarily be removed.
