Rays' top 7 signees, Casali on instructional league roster

Tampa Bay's top seven signees from the 2013 are on the team's instructional league roster, including first-rounder Ryne Stanek, who did not make his professional debut this summer.

Stanek was the 29th overall pick out of the University of Arkansas and signed July 2. He was 10-2 with a 1.39 ERA in 97 1/3 innings this spring.

Catcher Curt Casali is the only player with Biscuits credentials headed to instructs. Casali just ended his first season in the Tampa Bay organization and spent the last month in Montgomery.

There were two players who saw considerable action with the high-Class A Charlotte Stone Crabs: outfielder Drew Vettleson and reliever Lenny Linsky. Three others (Dylan Floro, Grayson Garvin, Chris Kirsch) also saw some time in Charlotte.

Five players from the Rays' teams in Venezuela and the Dominican Republic earned a spot on the instructs roster.

Left-handed pitcher Jose Alvarado had a 1.97 ERA in 13 starts and catcher David Rodriguez hit .329 in 64 games in Venezuela. In the Dominican, right-hander Deivy Mendez had a 6.55 ERA in 14 starts, outfielder Angel Moreno hit .305 in 38 games and outfielder Manny Sanchez had a .247 with 13 home runs and 52 RBIs in 69 games.

I've listed the players below by where they spent most of 2013, though there will surely be errors. For example, I listed Casali with the Stone Crabs and Floro with Bowling Green.
