And yet another late night game for local Rays fans as the team takes on lefty and former Ray, Jacob Lopez and the A's and hopefully continues the streak to 7 wins. The A's beat the Red Sox both Saturday and yesterday, so although their win-loss record is poor, they aren't hopeless and can't be taken for granted! Let's go, Rays!!

Jake Fraley Suffers Setback, pulled from rehab

Unfortunately, it's evidently related to his hernia surgery. He'll be seeing a doctor to determine the cause and extent per Topkin on X. May make procuring another bat for the outfield even more of a priority.

Nick Madrigal - Former 1st Round Pick, Signed to Minor League Deal

He will report to Triple-A Durham, but it would not be a surprise to see him up with the Big League team at some point this season. The Rays have not received much production from their middle infield and should be willing to give anyone a chance who shows some productivity or gets hot at the plate.

With the Triple-A Durham team performing at a surprisingly low level this season, it could also be seen as a wake-up call to players within the organization that the front office is willing to make moves to improve the overall depth at every level of the franchise.

Madrigal found some success with the Los Angeles Angels already in 2026. He played in 15 games, receiving 52 plate appearances. A .273/.385/.295 slash line was produced with a 97 OPS+ and Rbat+ of 112.

It has been a while since he got anywhere close to that level of production in the Big Leagues. The OPS+ and Rbat+ are both his highest marks since 2021, when he was with the White Sox. He had career highs with a 111 OPS+ and 124 Rbat+, which followed a strong debut in 2020 when he had a 107 and 117, respectively.

Madrigal was productive with Triple-A Salt Lake in 2026 as well. He produced a .275/.353/.366 slash line in 38 games and 168 plate appearances with two home runs, five doubles, one triple and 23 RBI.

Sports Illustrated - Madrigal to Rays
