Monday was a busy day at Tropicana Field as two 26-foot trucks were loaded by the Tampa Bay Rays clubhouse staff carrying everything from “A” to “Z” associated with the Rays to make their way down to Port Charlotte in preparation for Feb. 14 when the Rays open the clubhouse doors at Charlotte Sports Park.
Packing for spring training is no easy task, as Jose Fernandez, the Rays clubhouse manager along with his staff began preparing for this day back on January 6. They started coordinating with the training staff, coaches and the players to see what they needed to be moved.
