MAILBAG EPISODE!-Should the Tampa Bay Rays add an organ player at the Trop? Are we missing something out of the ballpark experience by not having one?-Is it frustrating to see Rays starters not go deep into games like they used to a decade ago? Does this strategy overuse the bullpen? What can be done to change it if it needs to be changed?-When is Junior Caminero going to be called up? What can we expect from Jonathan Aranda once he comes back from his broken finger injury? Will that hamper his power production at the plate? Shane Baz will be on an innings limit in 2024 as he comes back from Tommy John surgery. Could a move to the bullpen help watch those innings?Follow Kevin Weiss @KevinWeiss_Follow Ulises Sambrano @SambranoUlisesFollow the show @LockedOnRaysFollow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms…

The Tampa Bay Rays have suffered yet another injury. This time it is lefty hitter Jonathan Aranda. Aranda who has crushed AAA pitching the last 2 years was finally seeing a lane opening up for his talents in the MLB roster for the Rays. However, while doing fielding drills, he injured his middle finger. How does this affect the Opening Day roster? Are there too many righties? Will the Rays try to get more lefties in the team? Is it the golden opportunity for Curtis Mead to get at bats and cement himself in the middle of the lineup?

As Spring Training gets closer each day, Locked On Rays will be highlighting possible competitions for roles by position. Today, let's start with first base. Yandy Diaz is the mainstay. However, if there is a Harold Ramirez trade, which opens up the DH role for Yandy to stay healthy, who could be earning playing time by taking those ABs? Against RHP, could Jonathan Aranda finally get consistent playing time to translate those impressive minor league offensive numbers to MLB? What would be the percentage played at that position? Would we see Isaac Paredes moving from third to first and opening third for another candidate?
