It is always nice for a player to have bloodlines, and Landon Cray fits the bill. His uncle, Paul Sorrento, drilled 31 home runs for the Mariners in 1997 and 17 for the Devil Rays in their inaugural season the following year. Cray is an entirely different player than Sorrento, who was a first baseman and left fielder, but that isn’t a bad thing. Cray, who is 5’9″ and 170 pounds, is a centerfielder out of Seattle University who stood out enough for his excellent defense, strong plate approach, and blazing speed that the Tampa Bay Rays made him their 18th round selection.
