We had a glimpse into the future earlier this winter, when the Rays held their annual Winter Development Program, and we got some choice interviews from up and coming prospects. Today, fifteen days removed from Pitchers and Catchers reporting in Port Charlotte, we got the real deal as Tropicana Field hosted several Rays players, and the media as well.
Courtesy of Andrew Astleford, here are some interviews with a few members of your 2015 Rays.
Below you will find Kevin Cash's thoughts on the coming Spring, Alex Cobb sharing his thoughts on the new Rays manager, Chris Archer discussing teammate Matt Moore's return from injury, John Jaso (wearing a bandanna) divulging his thoughts on getting traded, and Grant Balfour moving on from his lack luster performance in 2014

And here's a video recap of the day from Marc Topkin and Will Vragovic of the Times. Watch for a quick glimpse of Cash throwing a bullpen session with some angst.
