[WORLD B. FRIEDMAN]
Andrew Friedman Running Rays Like A Fantasy Baseball Team
We have no idea if Andrew Friedman plays fantasy baseball. We have a feeling that Bud Selig might frown upon the idea of team executives logging in every morning to check the rosters of imaginary teams with real players.

Looking at the Rays transaction wire this season, we have to wonder if Friedman is seeking his fantasy-release with the 2008 Tampa Bay Rays. While injuries are to blame for most of the moves, that is still a lot of moves for the first three and a half weeks of the season.

And that doesn't include minor leaguers that were included in some of the above transactions (Josh Butler, Calvin Medlock).

If Friedman did have a fantasy baseball team, we imagine the name would have to be "World B. Friedmans". There really is no other choice.
