When was Pena officially "here"?

Ray's Pena wins AL Comeback Player of the Year

Take a peek at Carlos' career stats. What did he comeback from exactly? A career of underachieving as a first round pick?

Dear Carlos,

Glad to have you back.

Signed,

Mediocre

When is "mediocre" getting Carlos Pena back? After the season? Looking at those stats, and seeing the jump this season, makes me rather suspicious. I know testing was tighter this year and home runs were down on the whole, but going from a career high of 27 to 46? That doesn't quite make sense, especially because it's not like he's in his second or third year in the league.

True. But it's a shame if he did this naturally and we automatically assume he is doing something "extra"

And I am sure MLB will begin testing as soon as they find out there is a team in Tampa Bay.
