Top Rays News

  • Rays' Xavier Isaac: Returns to lineup

    Isaac started at DH and went 0-for-1 with three walks Thursday for Double-A Montgomery. He had not played since May 4 due to undisclosed reasons.

    Isaac wasn't placed on the injured list or any other roster exemption, so it's not clear if he was nursing an injury. Isaac is slashing .229/.460/.543 with two home runs and one stolen base in 12 games this year.

  • Rays' Coco Montes: Returns to Triple-A

    The Rays optioned Montes to Triple-A Durham on Friday.

    The 28-year-old was promoted Tuesday with Yandy Diaz heading to the restricted list, but Diaz was returned to the active roster Friday. Montes didn't see the field during his brief time in the majors, though he appeared in five big-league games earlier in the season and went 2-for-10 with an RBI and three strikeouts.

  • Rays' Yandy Diaz: Back from restricted list

    The Rays reinstated Diaz (personal) from the restricted list Friday.

    The 33-year-old was unavailable for a three-game series in Toronto due to a passport issue, but he's back with the Rays for Friday's series opener in Miami. Diaz has a .238/.291/.400 slash line with six homers through 175 plate appearances this year, and he's batting just .184 (7-for-38) through 10 games in May.

  • Rays' Jose Caballero: Nabs steal, scores twice in win

    Caballero went 2-for-4 with a double, a stolen base and two runs scored in Thursday's 8-3 win over the Blue Jays.

    Caballero has gone 7-for-21 (.333) with two steals over his last seven games, a span that includes a pair of multi-hit efforts. Playing time is set to get more difficult to maintain for the defensively versatile 28-year-old, but his hot hitting should help him continue to push Taylor Walls at shortstop once Josh Lowe, back from a long-term oblique injury, settles back into right field. Caballero has a .250/.333/.370 slash line with a home run, 12 RBI, 10 runs scored and 10 steals across 105 plate appearances this season. Even if he loses out on a near-everyday role, he'll still be a speedy option off the bench for the Rays.

  • Rays' Kameron Misner: Homers in Thursday's win

    Misner went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Thursday's 8-3 win over the Blue Jays.

    Misner has hit safely in four straight games, going 4-for-15 with two RBI and eight strikeouts in that span. He hasn't logged a multi-hit effort since April 23 versus the Diamondbacks, but the Rays' injury woes in the outfield have allowed Misner to maintain a starting role in center field. He cedes some at-bats to Chandler Simpson, primarily against left-handed pitchers. Misner has a .256/.305/.436 slash line with four homers, 13 RBI, 18 runs scored, three stolen bases, seven doubles and a triple over 128 plate appearances.

  • Rays' Josh Lowe: Homers in return

    Lowe went 3-for-5 with a solo home run and two additional runs scored in Thursday's 8-3 win over the Blue Jays.

    Lowe landed on the injured list after straining his oblique Opening Day, and he was eased back into action as the designated hitter after being reinstated Thursday. Lowe also hit leadoff, where his speed on the basepaths should be fruitful once he's back in a rhythm. The 27-year-old hit .241 with a .693 OPS over 106 games in 2024, but he batted .292 with an .835 OPS, 20 home runs and 32 steals in 2023, so there's significant potential here if he can put it all together.

  • Rays' Brandon Lowe: Club two homers in win

    Lowe went 3-for-5 with two home runs and four RBI in Thursday's 8-3 win over the Blue Jays.

    Lowe quickly opened the scoring with a two-run blast in the first inning, and he did the same thing to close out the scoring in the ninth. He torched Toronto pitching in this three-game series, going 7-for-13 with three extra-base hits and six RBI. That has Lowe's OPS up to .645 on the year, his highest mark since he was at .660 following an April 16 game versus the Red Sox. He's batting .220 with seven homers, 24 RBI, 17 runs scored, a stolen base and two doubles over 162 plate appearances.

  • Rays' Zack Littell: Earns third win

    Littell (3-5) allowed three runs on eight hits and a walk while striking out two over 7.1 innings to earn the win Thursday over the Blue Jays.

    Littell's longest start of the year was his fifth quality start in six outings, though there were some flaws. All three runs he allowed came via solo home runs, making this the fourth time in nine outings he's allowed multiple homers. Still, he continues to be effective at limiting damage, as this was the seventh time he's walked no more than one batter. The right-hander is now at a 4.31 ERA, 1.12 WHIP and 32:10 K:BB over 54.1 innings this season, despite allowing 13 homers so far. His next start is projected to be at home versus the Astros.

  • Rays' Jose Caballero: Continuing to play regularly

    Caballero will start in right field and bat sixth in Thursday's game against the Blue Jays, Ryan Bass of FanDuel Sports Network Sun reports.

    The Rays are including Caballero in the lineup for the seventh time in eight games, with the versatile 28-year-old drawing four starts in right field and one apiece at third base, second base and shortstop during that span. Caballero will likely continue to be fixture in the starting nine against left-handed pitching, but he could soon have to settle for more of a part-time role versus righties. Taylor Walls has seemingly regained a foothold as the Rays' primary shortstop, Josh Lowe (oblique) returned from the injured list Thursday and Yandy Diaz (personal) is on track to return from the restricted list Friday, which will close off three different avenues for Caballero to get consistent playing time when Tampa Bay faces righties.

  • Rays' Travis Jankowski: Goes on IL with groin strain

    The Rays placed Jankowski on the 10-day injured list Thursday with a left groin strain.

    Jankowski was removed from the seventh inning of Wednesday's loss to the Blue Jays due to the injury. He'll be eligible to return May 25, but it's unclear whether he'll be ready to go on that date. With Josh Lowe back from the IL, there might not be a role for Jankowski once he's physically ready to return.

  • Rays' Josh Lowe: Activated from 10-day IL

    The Rays activated Lowe (oblique) from the 10-day injured list Thursday. He will start at designated hitter and serve as the Rays' leadoff batter in the team's series finale in Toronto, Ryan Bass of FanDuel Sports Network Sun reports.

    The Rays had been expected to wait until Friday to activate Lowe, but with Travis Jankowski (groin) landing on the IL, the club has brought back Lowe a day early. Lowe has been out since late March after straining his oblique Opening Day, but he looked sharp in six rehab games, hitting two home runs and stealing one base with a 6:7 BB:K. Though the 27-year-old will be eased back in Thursday as the team's DH, he should eventually settle in as the Rays' regular right fielder against right-handed pitching.

  • Rays' Ryan Pepiot: Takes loss despite quality start

    Pepiot (2-5) took the loss against the Blue Jays on Wednesday, allowing three runs on six hits and one walk while striking out seven across six innings.

    Pepiot managed to keep the Blue Jays off the board through the first five innings, but he gave up a three-run homer to Alejandro Kirk in the sixth and was unable to get enough run support from the Rays' hitters to avoid the loss. Pepiot has logged a quality start in four of his last five appearances but has taken the loss in three of those outings. The 27-year-old right-hander has a 3.47 ERA and 1.26 WHIP across 49.1 innings this season and is lined up to face the Astros at home next week.

  • Rays' Taylor Walls: Retreating to bench Wednesday

    Walls is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Blue Jays, Ryan Bass of FanDuel Sports Network Sun reports.

    Though he'll be on the bench Wednesday, Walls appears to have taken back primary shortstop duties from Jose Caballero. Walls had started in each of the Rays' previous nine games and provided a rare impact at the dish during that stretch, slashing .310/.400/.379 with two doubles, five walks, one steal, five runs and three RBI.

  • Rays' Ben Rortvedt: Losing work to Jansen

    Rortvedt is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Blue Jays, Ryan Bass of FanDuel Sports Network Sun reports.

    Though he had seemed to be moving into the strong side of a platoon at catcher with Danny Jansen, the left-handed-hitting Rortvedt will end up hitting the bench Wednesday for a third straight matchup versus a right-handed starting pitcher. Rortvedt is heralded for his defense behind the plate and his quick pop time, but he's been an easy out at the plate this season with a .196 on-base percentage.

  • Rays' Xavier Isaac: Missing in action

    Isaac has not played for Double-A Montgomery since May 4 due to an undisclosed injury.

    Isaac dealt with an elbow issue in spring training and spent 11 days on the injured list in early April with the injury, so this latest absence could be related. Isaac is slashing .235/.435/.559 with two home runs and one stolen base in 11 games this year. He has a 32.6 percent strikeout rate after logging a 40.6 percent strikeout rate in 31 games at Double-A to close 2024.
