The Tampa Bay Rays sign Jesus Feliciano
The Rays have signed 32-year old lefty swinging outfielder Jesus Feliciano to a minor league deal. Feliciano played in 129 games in AA+AAA-ball last year and he was 114 for 425 (.268 avg, .662 OPS) with 47 runs scored, 4 homers, 39 RBIs and 7 stolen bases. He last played in the majors back in 2010 with the Mets. He has played in 54 games in his major league career so far and he is 25 for 108 (.231 avg, .563 OPS) with 12 runs scored, 0 homers, 3 RBIs and 1 stolen base. Feliciano will be a longshot to make the Rays this spring, so he will likely start the 2012 season in AAA-ball.
