Several new faces for Rays in Spring Training

C Hank Conger: The Rays acquired the switch-hitting catcher from the Astros for cash considerations. He is coming off a season in which he batted .229/.311/.448 with 11 home runs in 73 games. He hit right-handed pitching best -- .279/.353/.538 -- but he only managed a .175/.268/.351 slash line against left-handers. Conger struggled with his throwing, nailing just one would-be basestealer in 43 attempts in 2015.

SS Brad Miller: Miller came to the Rays in a Nov. 5 trade with the Mariners. He hit .258 with 11 home runs, 46 RBIs and 13 stolen bases in 144 games in 2015.
