PORT CHARLOTTE, Fla. -- With the high-octane potential of the numerous hitters the Rays acquired this winter to bolster their offense, the biggest addition to their lineup may prove to be a very familiar face: Desmond Jennings

The 29-year-old outfielder and his five-tool skill set arrived at Rays camp on Wednesday, along with a renewed enthusiasm for the game he loves.

"I feel good. I'm excited to actually participate in baseball again. Just looking forward to having some fun and playing," said a visibly upbeat Jennings, who was limited to 28 games last year after battling a left knee injury that eventually required surgery.
