The Los Angeles Dodgers can’t just be counted out in the Tarik Skubal sweepstakes amid the rapidly approaching MLB trade deadline. The Detroit Tigers ace is clearly the biggest name in the trade rumor mill, and the Dodgers appear to be a team that can find a way to land the two-time American League Cy […]
The post MLB rumors: Dodgers still named likely Tarik Skubal destination over Rays, Brewers appeared first on ClutchPoints .
Rays 3, Rangers 2
The list of teams monitoring Mets right-hander Freddy Peralta now includes the Padres and Diamondbacks. Both clubs had scouts at Citi Field when Peralta faced the Dodgers on Sunday, per Will Sammon of The Athletic. The Rays, Brewers, and Phillies are among the teams known to also be in on Peralta. Manager Andy Green told […]
Every so often, you’ve got to make a serious run at a championship. An occasional deep run keeps existing fans invested and draws new ones in.
The Colorado Rockies want top prospects in return for All-Star catcher Hunter Goodman. Could the Red Sox, Rays or Yankees pay up?
The Rays were hoping to come away from their three-game series against the Rangers with a split-series win on Thursday afternoon after dropping one game to the Texas club on Tuesday night. To get the job done they had Shane McClanahan on the mound. The Rangers, meanwhile, were going the Opener route with a one-inning […]
The Texas Rangers scored two runs but the Tampa Bay Rays scored three runs. Saving Nathan Eovaldi for Houston, the Rangers opted for a total bullpen game today with Cole Winn getting the opening inning. Winn got through his inning unscathed and handed things over to what amounted to a bulk pitcher today in Marco […]
Go Rays!

As the Tampa Bay Rays sit in a strong position in the American League standings in late July 2026, the organization faces a familiar but critical decision point. With the trade deadline set for August 3, speculation has intensified around potential moves to bolster the major league roster. Yet, recent reporting from Ken Rosenthal underscores […]
Rays 3, Rangers 0
Well, that was a horrible way to lose a baseball game. You just can’t lose when your ace has a four-run lead late. You just can’t lose when you twice survive five-man infield plays with a runner on third in extras. You just can’t lose when you’re an out away from a win and your […]
I wish I had more to say, but all the Rays’ offensive prowess came in the first inning this evening — and nothing else after that! Casey Legumina was tonight’s opener, working a 1-2-3 first inning, and his night would be finished thereafter. On pitch one in the bottom of the first, Yandy Diaz swatted […]
The Texas Rangers didn’t score but the Tampa Bay Rays scored three runs. MacKenzie Gore allowed three hits to the first four batters he faced in tonight’s contest. Two of those hits were home runs including one on the first pitch from Gore and another, a two-run shot, that nearly tore the roof off the […]

Scouts from at least seven teams were on hand to watch Clay Holmes‘ latest rehab start with the Mets, per Will Sammon, Ken Rosenthal and Katie Woo of The Athletic. The Rays, Phillies, Rangers, D-backs, White Sox, Dodgers and old friend Yankees all had personnel on hand. The Athletic report cites a pair of executives […]
The Yankees are finally on a little hot streak to counterbalance the awful stretch they played early in the month, winning their fifth game in six tries as they took down the White Sox for the second straight day. This time it was a nail-biter, a three-run second inning powered by doubles from Anthony Volpe […]
The Tampa Bay Rays are in the thick of the American League playoff race, and they are setting their sights high as the August 3 deadline approaches. Tampa Bay has expressed interest in a trio of impact names: Los Angeles Angels shortstop Zach Neto, New York Mets right-hander Freddy Peralta, and Detroit Tigers ace Tarik Skubal.
The ambition is notable for a small-market club that typically operates on the margins of the trade market.
Zach Neto
Neto would be the splashy position-player add...

The Orioles’ trade deadline direction is still up in the air with less than a week to go. Baltimore sits on a disappointing 52-55 record, burying them 11 games behind the division-leading Rays but leaving them just two games out in the AL Wild Card chase. They’re facing a similarly disappointing Tigers club right now […]
The Marlins are willing to trade catcher/first baseman Liam Hicks, according to Mark Feinsand of MLB.com.
