Latest news and updates about the Rays
Wilyer Abreu homered twice, including a go-ahead two-run blast in the seventh inning, to lift Boston to a 7-6 comeback win over the Rays on Saturday afternoon. The victory was Boston's 12th straight, its longest winning streak since June 2006.
The Rays continued their miserable play coming out of the break and extended their losing streak to four games with a 7-6 loss in Boston thanks to an all too familiar script of poor pitch execution and defensive miscues. The loss gave Boston its twelvth consecutive victory while reducing the division lead over the Yankees […]

The Boston Red Sox are 48-48, even for the first time since March 28th—the second game of the entire season. They got there by sweeping a doubleheader against the Tampa Bay Rays, 10-0 and 5-3, on a Friday afternoon and evening at Fenway Park. Jake Bennett went six innings and gave up one hit in […]
For the better part of the season, the Red Sox looked like a club destined for last place. Fans had grown frustrated with the lackluster play, the lack of power in the lineup and a team that seemed to be drifting without direction.
This game was a tease. Each time the Rays made a little headway on offense, they quickly gave it back on defense. Well, let me be clearer: Mason Englert, the Rays starter, promptly gave it back, because when the other team is hitting dingers it’s not the fielders who are letting us down. The Rays […]
The Cardinals announced they’ve acquired minor league reliever Trey Pooser from the Rays. He’s the player to be named later from last month’s deal that sent middle reliever Chris Roycroft to Tampa Bay. Pooser, a 6’4″ right-hander, was the Rays’ 10th-round pick in 2024. The University of Kentucky product was a senior sign who landed a $72K […]

As the New York Yankees try to catch the Tampa Bay Rays in the AL East coming out of the All-Star break, they might look to add an already strong area of their roster before the trade deadline.

During the game, Tampa Bay Rays all-star Junior Caminero was hit by a pitch, resulting in his leaving the game in the third inning.
