Rays signed DH Jack Cust to a minor league contract with an invitation to spring training.
Cust is a longshot to make the Opening Day roster after the Rays re-signed Luke Scott, but he'll represent depth at Triple-A. The 34-year-old spent all of 2012 at the Triple-A level, batting .243/.400/.442 with 20 homers and 72 RBI in 114 games.
