It sucks going from playing in front of a great fan base to a team with really no fan base at all," he said. "St. Louis, they're one of the few teams to where day in and day out they have 40,000 fans at every game.
"That's something that I miss, because even here in the Dominican they have a strong fan base for the team I'm playing for. Their fans are very supportive, they're loud. And the Rays? They just don't have that."

I read reports after he was traded that he was a diva within the clubhouse and didn't get along with management. What I don't know is whether this was a Matheny thing and/or a Mo thing.
