Chris Archer is back in familiar surroundings, eager to re-establish himself with the Tampa Bay Rays. Archer jokes it was good to not need to use GPS to find his way to spring training in Port Charlotte, Florida. There are some new players, some new faces on the players side, but the staff is pretty much the same,” Archer said. “It’s a really nice balance.”Archer is 60-80 with a 3.86 ERA in 212 career appearances over portions of eight seasons. “Each day that went by, and as my health got better,” he added of his time away from the game last summer, “I continued to get hungrier and hungrier.”Loading...
