Rays Trade Candidate: Joe Ryan

Joe Ryan was famously traded from the Rays to the Twins at the 2021 deadline as part of the deal that brought Nelson Cruz to Tampa Bay for its postseason push and veteran leadership in a clubhouse that saw its future in Wander Franco. Fast forward a few years and Ryan looks like an ideal […]

Will the AL East be a two-horse race all year?

A strong weekend in Toronto left the Yankees back where they want to be, alone in first place in the AL East, and with the best record in the American League for good measure. Despite falling behind the Rays by as many as five games last month, New York has surged to put themselves back […]

Rays avoid sweep with some late inning juice: Rays 8, Angels 3

Humbled by the Halos: Rays 0, Angels 8

The best, most positive bright spot of this game and this series is that it happened late at night on the West Coast, in between a packed World Cup slate, and during Game 5 of the NBA Finals. Ideally the absolute minimum amount of people were exposed to the completely lifeless version of the Rays […]

Yankees Rivalry Roundup: Rays can’t come back against Angels

The Yankees did not have their A-game in their opener against the Blue Jays, falling behind 5-0 before ultimately losing 8-5 and suffering another potential blow to their outfield with Trent Grisham leaving the game early.

Astros To Select Raynel Delgado

The Astros will select infielder Raynel Delgado onto the major league roster for the start of tomorrow’s series in Kansas City, reports Francys Romero. Houston acquired him from the Rays in a minor league trade yesterday. The Astros initially assigned Delgado to Triple-A Sugar Land but have instead decided to jump him straight to the MLB […]

Rays Trade Candidate: Lars Nootbaar

It feels like Lars Nootbaar has been someone that could fit well on the Rays’ roster over the last few years. I think the timing could be right to acquire him this season if the Cardinals are willing to part ways with him. Nootbaar combines above-average on-base ability, defensive versatility, and multiple years of team […]

TRADE: Astros Acquire Infielder From Rays

The Houston Astros acquired minor league infielder Raynel Delgado from the Tampa Bay Rays for cash considerations, with Delgado assigned to Triple-A Sugar Land. The move is a direct response to two consecutive infield injuries that have thinned Houston's upper-level depth. Nick Allen went on the injured list with a hamstring strain last week. Braden Shewmake followed with an adductor strain. Both are unavailable, leaving the Astros short on versatile infield options at the Triple-A level. ...

Nick Fortes gameday GOAT: Rays 7, Red Sox 5

The Red Sox lineup got going too late as Rays complete sweep

The Red Sox showed exactly why the lineup just hasn’t been good enough all season long.

Astros To Acquire Raynel Delgado From Rays

The Astros are acquiring minor league infielder Raynel Delgado from the Rays for cash considerations, reports Brian McTaggart of MLB.com.

MLB Rumors: Top 3 Trade Destinations For CJ Abrams

CJ Abrams is just 25 years old, has 14 home runs, 51 RBIs, and a .283 average in 67 games, and plays for a Washington Nationals team that traded MacKenzie Gore in January and is clearly not built to contend over a 162-game season. ESPN's Jeff Passan explored the trade picture this week, naming the Yankees, Braves, Brewers, and Rays as teams that could pursue Abrams ahead of the August 3 deadline. Abrams is not a free agent until after the 2028 season, meaning any acquiring team gets two-pl...
