Tampa Bay Rays prospect Justin O'Conner isn't putting his feet up on the coffee table this offseason. He's already back on the baseball field and playing in the Arizona Fall League.

O'Conner hit .278 with 12 home runs and 47 RBI in 2014, beginning the season at High-A Charlotte and then moving up to Double-A Montgomery for the final 21 games of the season.

The catcher, who was picked in the first round of the 2010 amateur draft by the Rays, is looking to gain more experience in Arizona.

''It's a great opportunity to try and get better and be a round a lot of high-caliber players and match up against some good talent,'' O'Conner said.
