The Rays Template includes progressive field management under Joe Maddon, including extensive use of: 1) defensive shifts, 2) LH/RH player platoons, 3) late game defensive replacements, 4) changes in line-up order to maximize hitting advantages, 5) advanced defensive catching metrics, 6) bullpen management to maximize LH/RH advantages, etc.
Contrast this approach to Dark Age approach of the M's Field Management the last 3 years. If GMZ wants to model his team after the Rays, his Field Management group needs to copy Maddon's approach.
