Rays' Will Simpson: Shipped to Tampa
The Athletics traded Simpson to the Rays on Saturday alongside Joe Boyle and Jacob Watters and a compensatory draft pick in exchange for Jeffrey Springs and Jacob Lopez, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.
Simpson slashed .281/.377/.480 with 18 homers and 89 RBI over 552 plate appearances between High-A and Double-A last season, continuing his trend of offensive success at every level he's played in during his professional career.

Athletics' Will Simpson: On fire at Double-A
Simpson is hitting .455 with one home run, 10 strikeouts and five walks in 12 games since getting promoted from High-A Lansing to Double-A Midland on Aug. 25.

Simpson's 34.9 percent hard-hit rate and 13.1 percent soft-hit rate are in line with the impact needed to profile as a legitimate first-base prospect. However, he is behind Nick Kurtz and Tyler Soderstrom on the organizational depth chart.
