PORT CHARLOTTE, Fla. -- Chris Archer's Sunday morning message still resonated within the Rays' clubhouse Monday morning.
Acting like a leader, Archer told a pair of Rays rookies -- pitchers Blake Snell and Jacob Faria, that they should get to work a little earlier.
Although Rays workouts don't start until 9:30 a.m. ET, Snell and Faria showed around 8:30. That's when Archer told the pair that showing up when they did was not acceptable for two players who had no Major League service time.
@ChrisArcher42 @TBTimes_Rays I'm here to learn from the best because I want to be the best.
