The Princeton Devil Rays are a minor league baseball team in Princeton, West Virginia, USA. They are a Rookie-level team in the Appalachian League and have been a farm team of the Tampa Bay Rays since 1998. The Devil Rays play home games at H.P. Hunnicutt Field. Opened in 1988, H.P. Hunnicutt Field seats 3,000 fans.

Like the Advanced-A affiliate in Vero Beach, Princeton did not immediately change its name to match when the Rays dropped the "Devil" from their name. In fact, the font of the Princeton logo still matches the team's original font from 1998, though the colors eventually changed to match the team's green-based colors from 2001 through 2007.

Princeton's mascot is "Roscoe", a rooster that is termed as "drug-free".
