Finally, there is my personal top-three:
3. Rays
Hockey Jersey presented by the Florida Department of Transportation (September 12 vs. Houston Astros) – honoring the legacy of the Thunder Dome no doubt
2. Raymond Shoulder Plush (July 26 vs. Cleveland Guardians) – like your own personal Raymond parrot
1. Devil Rays Windbreaker presented by Orlando Health (August 29 vs. San Diego Padres) – 10/10 would wear to a boat parade
Still to be released is a City Connect button up, and there are always surprises in-store for the season, as well as various theme nights throughout the year, some of which include bobbleheads, hats, or shirts.
These include a Yandy Diaz Mandalorian Bobblehead on May 4th for the nerds, an incredible Juneteenth City Connect Jersey on June 19th, and a Harry Potter hat on July 31st my eldest child would love.
