Steven Souza didn't have a chance. His accomplishments were never going to match the expectations.

He was supposed to be instant impact, right? He was supposed be better than Wil Myers. He was supposed to be a budding star. Never was he supposed to be just another rookie.

Frankly, the Rays needed Souza. There was so much sameness in the batting order. He was the one guy who had real promise with his tools.
