These two teams are not really rivals, as evidenced by the lack of sourcing present. Let'srun (talk) 14:16, 1 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom, unless some new flood of sourcing appears and demonstrates this game series to be encyclopedically notable as "a thing". There are lots of mentions [1] but I'm not so sure about in-depth coverage. Whether or not it's a "true rivalry" is probably not relevant to the question, but we have a lot of articles on alleged "sport[s] rivalries" in a more general sense (not about a named series of games per se) that are questionably enyclopedic as topics in and of themselves (probably better treated as sections at team articles) and bear closer examination. — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼 18:04, 1 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Major League Baseball rivalries#Citrus Series: Miami Marlins vs. Tampa Bay Rays per nom. The series does not pass GNG (in terms of establishing a notable rivalry) but this could be a reasonable search term. Frank Anchor 23:03, 2 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Redirect to its section on the MLB rivalries page as suggested by Frank Anchor. Hatman31 (talk) 17:02, 9 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
