The Rays announced that they have selected the contract of right-hander . Righty was optioned to Triple-A Durham to create room on the 28-man roster, and outfielder was moved to the 60-day injured list to create space for Acton on the 40-man roster. Acton made his Major League debut in le s than stellar fashion with the As in 2023, as the 27-year-old was rocked for a 12.71 ERA over six games and 5 2/3 innings of work. Acton allowed three home runs in that brief sample, and i sued an equal number of walks and strikeouts (five apiece). Any attempts at a follow-up were then put Sean Reid-Foley Jersey on hold by a Tommy John surgery, which kept Acton from any game action at either the major or minor league levels in 2024. Released by the As in June 2023, Acton landed with the Rays on a two-year minor league deal the following offseason, with the understanding that Acton would spend all of 2024 recuperating. He got back to the mound this year and has looked pretty sharp, posting a 3.64 ERA, 30.7% strikeout rate, and an 11.0% walk rate that is on the high side. The velocity isnt all the way back, as Actons fastball is averaging 93.7 mph this year after clocking in at 95.3mph during his brief stint in the Show in 2023. Actons homer rate is a respectable 8.6% this season in Durham, which is a career best for an extreme fly-ball pitcher. Actons attempts to keep the ball in the park will be immediately tested this weekend in Wrigley Field against a powerful Cubs lineup, and his promotion represents the Rays need for a fresh arm in the bullpen. Tampa Bay used five relievers (including Orze) in yesterdays 6-4 lo s to the Cubs, since starter was chased in the third inning. DeLucas 2025 season has now officially been ended with the move from the 10-day IL to the 60-day IL. The outfielder was first sidelined by a left hamstring strain back on August 7, and seemed to be working his way back on a Triple-A rehab a signment before suffering a quad strain earlier this week. This is unfortunately DeLucas second trip to the 60-day IL in 2025. An April shoulder strain that was initially expected to keep DeLuca out for 2-4 weeks ended up keeping him off the Rays roster for over 3.5 months. DeLucas lost year will end with just 20 big league games, though he did hit well (.333/.356/.456 in 59 plate appearances) when he was able to play. Vladimir Guerrero Jr Jersey
