David Price has been called up by the Tampa Bay Rays and may start as soon as Saturday. Price, who is considered one of the top pitching prospects in all of baseball, has pitched increasingly well in the minor leagues this season.
Price first made his name as a stud pitcher at Vanderbilt University. Now, a short time later, Price will try to help the Rays make the playoffs.
In the AL East, the Rays are in a dog fight with the Boston Red Sox for the top spot. The Toronto Blue Jays are also making a charge up the standings, while the always dangerous New York Yankees continue to lurk.
If Price does make a start in the coming days, you can bet the eyes of baseball will all be focused on one of the game’s most exciting prospects.
