Gavin Lux made his long-awaited spring debut, but the Rays fell 6-5 to the Twins in a game that showcased more than just Lux's five innings at second base. With Cedric Mullins and Chandler Simpson returning to the lineup, the Rays are beginning to piece together a full squad, which is a promising sign ahead of the season. Meanwhile, pitchers Griffin Jax, Garrett Cleavinger, and Yoendrys Gomez are turning heads in the World Baseball Classic, boosting their stock with standout performances. As the Rays assess their depth, the challenge remains: how to fortify their lineup behind the explosive trio of Yandy Díaz, Junior Caminero, and Cedric Mullins. With the 2026 season in sight, fans can only hope the veterans find a way to keep their momentum rolling.
