Joe Smith of the Tampa Bay Times reports that free agent outfielder Sam Fuld remains open to returning to the Rays. The 32-year-old had a very disappointing season in 2013, slashing a brutal .199/.270/.267 with two homers, 17 RBI and eight stolen bases. He remains a top flight defender though with plus speed, and would make a valuable depth signing on a minor league deal.

Fuld was non-tendered by the Rays in December after batting just .199/.270/.267 over 200 plate appearances this past season. A return to Tampa Bay hasn't been ruled out.

Rays non-tendered OF Sam Fuld. Fuld is an excellent defender, but he's coming off a horrible season where he batted just .199/.270/.267 over 200 plate appearances. The Rays obviously decided that lack of production wasn't worth a raise in what is Fuld's first year of arbitration eligibility. Still, he won't trouble netting a bench job somewhere.

Sam Fuld has been scratched from Saturday's lineup. Fuld is dealing with an upset stomach, so this doesn't appear to be related to the hamstring injury that's sidelined him for most of spring training. Sean Rodriguez will take his spot in the lineup.
