BBTN video preview: AL East

The Rays finished 80-82 in 2015, good for fourth in the American League East. Disappointing as that may sound, it was quite an accomplishment considering they started the season with three-fifths of their projected rotation on the disabled list. In search of mores runs to couple with their impressive pitching and defense, the club sought to add power this offseason, a difficult task with a limited budget. Corey Dickerson, Steve Pearce, Hank Conger and Logan Morrison all come with question marks, but they should provide the boost the team seeks.
