\n The Yankees are set to make their lone trip<\/a> to Tropicana Field during this truncated season for a four-game<\/a> series<\/a> that starts Friday. And according to Blake Snell, the Rays are ready for the first-place Yankees.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen we beat the Yankees, we party definitely harder after the game celebrating a good win,\u2019\u2019 the 27-year-old left-hander said, according to the Tampa Bay Times.<\/p>\n

With the Red Sox having punted on the season after trading Mookie Betts, the Orioles lacking talent and the Blue Jays without a home, the Yankees and Rays figure to be in a battle for AL East supremacy, though Tampa Bay has gotten off to a slow start in 2020.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s tough to beat the Yankees,\u2019\u2019 Snell said. \u201cThey\u2019re talented. They\u2019re very good. It\u2019s an extremely hard team to beat. With our talent, when we do that, I would definitely say it feels a lot better because we know they have the money to get the best guys in the world.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n

Even in this 60-game season, the Yankees are set to have an MLB-high team payroll of $109 million, according to Spotrac, while the Rays are set to come in at $28 million- ahead of only Pittsburgh and Baltimore.<\/p>\n

Yet the Rays were once again considered postseason contenders- even before MLB expanded the playoffs for this season from 10 to 16 teams.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s in our DNA to be the David to take on the Goliaths,\u201d Rays president Matt Silverman told The Post\u2019s Ken Davidoff last month, \u201cI\u2019m not sure how well David would have fared taking on two Goliaths, but that\u2019s our lot in life, and we have embraced that challenge. It makes it even more rewarding when we\u2019ve reached the playoffs.\u201d<\/p>\n

Snell has clearly taken that message to heart.<\/p>\n

\u201cFacing the Yankees, I\u2019m way more locked in,\u2019\u2019 said Snell, who is 2-1 with a 2.08 in five starts at Tropicana Field against the Yankees, but just 3-6 with a 4.41 ERA in 16 starts overall versus his nemesis.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m way more focused because it\u2019s such a talented team,\u2019\u2019 Snell said. \u201cI face them all the time. There\u2019s no better feeling than beating the Yankees. Just strictly because of how good they are. Their fans love to talk. And when you beat them, it\u2019s just, yeah, you know you did something good.\u2019\u2019\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
