Tampa Bay Rays 2024 Spring Training Leaders

It was a Spring to remember for some; for others a Spring to forget

After six grueling agonizingly long weeks, Spring Training is mercifully over. The highly anticipated yet quickly yawn inducing schedule of about 30 exhibition games has reached its conclusion with the Rays and Tigers playing to a 3-3 tie on Tuesday afternoon. All of the meaningless statistics that will forever grace analytical websites will be the only thing to actually show that any games were played. Random minor league free agents, the occasional top prospect, and organizational soldiers all made their mark this Spring as both made up the top and worst performers.

So, without further adieu, here were the top and worst offensive statiscal leaders this Spring (min. 20 plate appearances).
