PORT CHARLOTTE, Fla. -- Chris Archer doesn't like looking in the rearview mirror. A proactive approach better suits the Rays' right-hander, so his eyes are constantly looking forward.
But Archer did manage to have a sense of humor about the 2016 season.
"You either win or you learn," Archer said. "And I learned 19 times last year."
While he doesn't like to look back at 2016, when he went 9-19 with a 4.02 ERA, Archer did offer his thoughts about what happened.
"Looking back at last season, I'm reminded that the number one thing is to just trust myself and not try to do too much," he said.
