| 3/09/24 | Rays have reason to feel very much at home in Dominican Republic. SANTO DOMINGO, Dominican Republic — The Rays had plenty of reason to feel at home for Saturday’s exhibition game against the Red Sox. First, because some of their Dominican players stayed at their family’s houses, such as top prospect Junior Caminero, who grew up a few blocks from Estadio Quisqueya. “Thank God I even have the opportunity to be here,” he said via team interpreter Manny Navarro. ...

| 12/31/23 | Tampa Bay Rays Top 10 Prospects For 2024 Fantasy Baseball. 1. SS Junior Caminero | 20 | MLB | 2023
Caminero smashed 31 home runs in 117 games across two levels, slashing .309/.373/.548 with a 17.1 percent strikeout rate in 81 Double-A games on his way to a late-season promotion to the show. To my eyes, he’s the leading candidate to open the 2024 season as the club’s starting shortstop. Maybe they go a different way, considering he’s not a great defender and has spent a lot of minor league time at third base. Tim Anderson feels like a good fit on a prove-it deal, if they’re looking for a moderately priced option in free agency. Taylor Walls is a possibility, in house, but he hit .201 last year and got worse throughout the season. If he can handle the workload on defense, Caminero has the talent to rejuvenate a team and fanbase that will be missing its missing building block until it manages to forget him.

And Grey will be hunted this winter." What? He ranked Caminero 6th overall in the top 25 prospects.
