Pat Burrell hopes to make big impact in his return from the DL

Pat Burrell will make one more start at AA Montgomery before making his long awaited return to the big leagues. Out since May 11 with a stiff neck, Burrell will look to make an impact when he again graces the line-up with his power right handed bat. Don't get me wrong, Gabe Gross and Joe Dillon have filled his shoes well at times, I'm sure the Rays are looking forward to seeing Pat in the DH position. Although Burrell hasn't been the big off-season signee so far, we should all be confident that he can turn around his dismal .315 slugging percentage and 1 hr into something that propels the Rays over .500 and to the top of the division. Because someone has to do it!
