Rays Call Up Top Prospect Price
13th September, 2008 - 10:45 am
St. Petersburg Times - The Rays have called up pitching phenom David Price, and he will join the team's bullpen on Saturday, according to St. Petersburg Times.

Price was promoted Friday after Durham's season-ending loss, having gone 12-1, with an ERA of 2.30 in 19 minor-league starts.

"For David to get this opportunity so early in his career speaks volumes about him," executive Vice President Andrew Friedman said. "We still feel like there's some things developmentally that he needs to work on. There were a little bit of road bumps for him in Triple A, but it's good for his development to have experienced it, and we think for him to be a part of this environment and what's going on right now will further aid in his development."
