Today’s player pool news:
- The Rays are adding shortstop prospect Greg Jones to their 60-man player pool, per Juan Toribio of MLB.com (Twitter link).

The switch-hitting speedster didn’t advance past the short-season New York-Penn League in his first pro action, so he’s surely not on the radar for an MLB call in 2020. Rather, he’ll get an opportunity for additional instruction in front of Rays’ player development staff.

I’m not bitter. It’s more than I am tired of seeing the mistake for 20+years.
Tampa Bay Rays is fine by me. I’ve been calling them the St Pete Sting Rays ever since fans were up in arms about the name Devil Rays. As soon as they move to Tampa it becomes a non issue. I’m done. We beat the yanks, and I’m happy about that.

We should just make the bold move at call the Rays the Tropicana Rays; clear up any misunderstanding.
There is some major talent in the Alt-Site for the Rays. I wish clubs hadn’t videos of the 60 man going through the drills and such. I miss watching the minor league highlights to catch up on farmhands.
Greg Jones- he reminds me of Alex Cole.
