Burrell To Tampa

From the beginning of the 2008 season I thought this was the best fit for both parties come 2009.  The Phils-Rays World Series underscored the point. The Bat loves sunny climes, he won't have to field and the Rays need a righty and a veteran older guy to complement their young talent.  I love that it was Pat's last hit as a Phil that put the winning run on against Tampa in the Classic.  Godspeed, Pat, and thanks for everything.  Best of luck (until next October).
