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'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.
