Tampa Bay Rays: Baseball Prospectus Not a Fan of Luke Maile

The Tampa Bay Rays took steps towards solidifying their catcher position when they inked Wilson Ramos to a two year contract. However, as he is still recovering from a torn ACL, Ramos will not be behind the plate for at least the first month of the season. Even once he is ready to return, the Rays are likely to be cautious with his workload behind the plate until he proves to be fully recovered.

In the interim, this currently leaves Luke Maile atop the Rays depth chart. This prospect is not exactly exciting to Baseball Prospectus in their writeup about the Rays players heading into this season.
