1 more than the Yankees, who hit their first 2 of the season this week.

Surprising for a team loaded with speed and great base running......How many blunders so far this season?

It's beyond ridiculous at this point. The one thing they're leading the league in by a mile-getting thrown out on the bases.

Well JD isn't spectacular in the field either so where are you going to put him if Devers is the DH?
Jd isnt horrible and way less risk in the OF than at 3b

Can't be asking for much. He can opt out of his minor league contract if he's not added to the Rangers 40 man by June 1, and then they'll get nothing.
Surprised the Blue Jays aren’t interested in him. I thought they were trying to corner the market on 2nd generation players.

Rays are dealing Adames to Milwaukee for two pitchers I've never heard of.

I'm sure they'll be lights out.

Gilberto Jimenez. 20yo Sox prospect in Single-A currently batting .390. All he’s ever done is hit(career .344BA in the minors). Lightning speed, too. Legit prospect. Would expect to see him moved up soon.

thought that was an underwhelming return for the Rays. I get they're deep at short but I feel like you can do better for a 25-year-old with a 103 OPS+ and 7.7 WAR in 1254 PA than two relievers.

i have feyereisen on a cpl fantasy teams he has been going downhill for cpl weeks but im sure TB will cure him rasmussin is a prospect


Rays acquired RHP J.P. Feyereisen and RHP Drew Rasmussen from the Rays for RHP Trevor Richards and SS Willy Adames.​

Feyereisen, 28, has appeared in 21 games out of the Brewers bullpen this season, compiling a 3.26 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 20/11 K/BB ratio across 19 1/3 innings. He'll provide Rays manager Kevin Cash with another weapon in the middle innings

no wander yet

Rays recalled INF Taylor Walls from Triple-A Durham.​

Most had hoped to see Wander Franco or Vidal Brujan get the call in the wake of the Rays dealing Willy Adames to the Brewers on Friday, but it'll be Taylor Walls who gets the first chance to secure the job there. Walls is a nice prospect in his own right -- he just isn't on the level of those other two. Manager Kevin Cash indicated that Walls will see plenty of time at shortstop, while Joey Wendle may mix in as well. The 24-year-old was off to a nice start at Triple-A, slashing .327/.468/.490 with two homers, 10 RBI and two stolen bases. If he's going to be starting on a nightly basis, he's worth a look in deeper mixed leagues.

Jarren Duran: 5-5, 2B, 2HR, 3RBI today. Already has 7HR in AAA. 1.061OPS. Not sure how long they can keep him down.
