Tampa Bay Shortens Name!

They wanted to start the new year off on the right foot with a shorter, more marketable name. With the new name, they had to change their logo. The picture on the top right is their mascot, and the picture on the top left is the new Rays logo.

Their original Tampa Bay Devil Rays logo from 1998-2000 looked like this:
