Eight Men Moved

The Rays have moved eight players to minor league camp, giving Bulls fans a developing look at roster possibilities. Of the six pitchers, three are on the 40-man and there’s little reason for them not to move to the Bulls roster. When you move that many pitchers, though, you don’t need all the catchers in the big league camp, so young Mr. Maile moved “down” as well. All of them were on our master list from a few days ago.

Note that the Port Charlotte setup is huge. Moving to minor league camp means moving from one locker room to another. They’ve got five or six fields down there, but no press coverage to speak of. So these fellows will disappear off the stats sheets until April.
