The Tampa Bay Rays have made a few moves since the last time I reviewed the 40 man roster. The deadline to protect prospects from the rule five draft and the non-tender deadline has past. A few days ahead of the winter meetings, the Rays have 37 rostered players.
The Rays recently added RHP Brent Honeywell, 1B/OF Jake Bauers, OF Justin Williams, RHP Diego Castillo, RHP Yonny Chirinos, RHP Jose Mujica, and LHP Ryan Yarbrough to the 40 man roster to protect them from the Rule 5 draft.
They also claimed 2B/OF Micah Johnson off waivers.
