Chandler Simpson: The Rays Breakout Star - The Tampa Bay Rays 2026 MLB season may be low on expectations, but their young talent, particularly outfielder Chandler Simpson, is sparking real excitement. Simpson, a second-round pick with elite speed and strong contact skills, is poised for a breakout year. Despite transitioning from infield to outfield, Simpsons base-stealing ability makes him a threat. Experts like Kiley McDaniel see him as the Rays top riser, praising his unique athletic tools. If Simpson leads off ahead of stars like Junior Caminero and Yandy Diaz, he could top MLB in stolen bases. Despite defensive struggles, Simpsons training with veteran Kevin Kiermaier could unlock an everyday role, potentially unlocking the Rays offense.
