Riefenhauser, Yates on Rays' 40-man roster
Two former Biscuits have been added to Tampa Bay's 40-man roster, which shields them from next month's Rule 5 draft.
Left-hander C.J. Riefenhauser and right-hander Kirby Yates, plus infielder Vince Belnome and right-handed pitcher Jesse Hahn went on the 40-man.
Today was the deadline for teams to finalize their 40-man rosters for the Rule 5.
The Rays have protected 37 players.
They also re-signed pitchers Victor Mateo, Mark Lowe and Sam Runion to minor league deals and invited them to major league spring training. Mateo threw a no-hitter this year for Montgomery.
Catcher Mayo Acosta and pitchers Michael Colla, Eduar Quiñonez and Albert Suarez signed minor league contracts. Acosta, Colla and Suarez were Biscuits this year.

Myers gives Rays 3rd AL Rookie of Year in 6 years
Outfielder Wil Myers won the AL Rookie of the Year award, giving the Rays their third winner in the last six years.
Third baseman Evan Longoria won in 2008 and pitcher Jeremy Hellickson was the 2011 winner.
Myers received 23 of a possible 30 first-place votes. Rays pitcher Chris Archer finished third with Detroit shortstop Jose Inglesias second.
Archer, Longoria and Hellickson are former Biscuits.
Myers, in just 88 games, hit .293 with 13 home runs and an AL rookie-best 53 RBIs. The 22-year-old came to Tampa Bay in a trade last winter from the Kansas City Royals.
