I wonder if Davis and Price force their way into the rotation. This forces Niemann to the bullpen, and Sonnanstine is traded or kept as the long-reliever. Think the Rays would trade Sonnanstine at the deadline if the two youngsters are up and throwing well?
It is not a crazy idea, but i think the Rays like the idea of what Price provided last fall, and hope one of those two can do that again. And also, the Rays like their pitching depth and they have already traded two starters. I would be surprised if they traded a third this soon. I think your scenario is more likely after the season.
