Rays Ink Joe Nelson

The Tampa Bay Rays have strengthened their already amazing bullpen, signing 34-year old Joe Nelson to a 1-year deal worth $1.3M. Nelson pitched for the Florida Marlins last season, compiling a 2.00 ERA in 54 innings. Florida was forced to non-tender him this offseason.
Nelson was a journeyman pitcher until he put together his monsterous 2008 campaign, and hopes to continue his success with the "other" Florida team.
