Rays' Manuel Rodriguez: Suffers apparent setback
Rodriguez (forearm) exited his rehab appearance with Triple-A Durham on Friday after facing only three batters, MLB.com reports.
There hasn't been any official word on why Rodriguez departed, but it wasn't pre-planned and his velocity fell to just 91.6 mph. He will now almost certainly not be activated prior to the All-Star break, but a further timeline is not yet clear.

Rays' Jake Mangum: Swipes 13th base
Mangum went 2-for-4 with a walk, a run scored and a stolen base Friday against the Red Sox.
Mangum remains the Rays' regular left fielder, though he notably hit third in the lineup for the first time since June 20 and only the fourth total time this season. He extended his hitting streak to four games and also tallied his second stolen base in that span. Mangum should remain a solid source of batting average and stolen bases in the second half of the campaign.

Rays' Pete Fairbanks: Loses control in ninth
Fairbanks (4-3) took the loss and blew a save Friday, allowing two runs on one hit and one walk while recording just one out in the 5-4 defeat to the Red Sox.
Fairbanks ran into trouble in the ninth. After retiring the first batter he faced, the 31-year-old issued a walk to Roman Anthony before surrendering a walk-off two-run homer that erased the Rays' late lead. It marked just his third blown save of the season, but the right-hander has now allowed multiple runs in three of his last 10 appearances, a stretch that has dented an otherwise solid 2025 campaign.

Rays' Drew Rasmussen: Solid in short start
Rasmussen did not factor into the decision in Friday's 5-4 loss to Boston, allowing one run on three hits and one walk while striking out one over two innings.
Rasmussen surrendered his lone run in the second inning before exiting at the end of the frame. The Rays have been transparent about managing his workload, and this marked his third straight appearance without completing more than three innings. Over that span, the right-hander has allowed six earned runs on 11 hits while striking out five across seven total innings

Rays' Ha-Seong Kim: Taking seat Friday
Kim is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Red Sox, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
Kim started the previous three games and will head to the bench Friday after going 4-for-12 with a double, a homer and three RBI. Taylor Walls will step in at shortstop for Tampa Bay.

Rays' Curtis Mead: Back in majors
The Rays recalled Mead from Triple-A Durham on Friday.
The 24-year-old was optioned to Durham in early July but will rejoin Tampa Bay for the final three games of the first half with Brandon Lowe (oblique) headed to the injured list. Mead has a .225/.320/.342 slash line with three homers and four steals in 128 plate appearances in the big leagues this season, and he's likely to operate as a reserve infielder while up with the Rays.

Rays' Brandon Lowe: Lands on injured list
The Rays placed Lowe on the 10-day injured list Friday, retroactive to July 8, due to left oblique tightness.
The 31-year-old hasn't seen the field since suffering the injury Sunday in Minnesota, and he'll spend the final series before the All-Star break on the injured list. Lowe will be unable to take part in the Midsummer Classic as a result, but he'll be eligible to be reinstated for the start of the second half July 18 versus Baltimore.

Rays' Santiago Suarez: Out with arm injury
Suarez is on the 7-day injured list at High-A Bowling Green with tightness in his right triceps and shoulder, J.J. Cooper of Baseball America reports.
The report from early June states that the injury is not considered serious and he should return before too long, but Suarez hasn't pitched in a game since May 7. The 20-year-old righty had a 1.78 ERA, 0.83 WHIP and 28:5 K:BB in 25.1 innings prior to the injury.

Rays' Ha-Seong Kim: Slugs first homer
Kim went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run Thursday against the Red Sox.
Kim opened the scoring for the Rays by blasting his first home run of the season in the fourth inning. He's settled into an everyday role since returning from both shoulder and calf injuries, starting three straight games while hitting fifth or sixth in the lineup. It's a very small sample, but Kim has gone 5-for-15 with two extra-base hits and a stolen base to start his tenure with Tampa Bay.

Rays' Taj Bradley: Five Ks in six strong innings
Bradley took a no-decision Thursday against the Red Sox, giving up one run on two hits and three walks in six innings. He struck out five.
Bradley was able to hurl at least five innings for a fourth start in a row, as he held the Red Sox to only two singles. The two hits allowed came in the third frame, when Boston scratched a run across. The 24-year-old right-hander still hasn't lived up to the hype that made him one of baseball's top pitching prospects not long ago, and he's recorded an uninspiring 4.60 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and 89:40 K:BB over 103.2 innings this season.

Rays' Bryan Baker: Flounders in team debut
Baker (3-3) was charged with the loss and a blown save in Thursday's 4-3 loss to Boston, allowing three runs on two hits and two walks in the seventh inning. He struck out one.
Making his Rays debut, Baker was brought on to protect a three-run lead but floundered in the seventh frame. The 30-year-old right-hander should still act as a setup man for closer Pete Fairbanks in Tampa Bay's bullpen moving ahead, although the former has now given up seven runs in his past two outings. Baker is now at a 4.12 ERA, 1.17 WHIP and 50:11 K:BB over 39.1 innings in 2025.

Rays' Jake Mangum: Taking seat Thursday
Mangum isn't in the lineup for Thursday's game versus Boston, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
After starting the month of July, 7-for-28 with a homer, two RBI and three runs scored in seven games, Mangum will take a seat against Walker Buehler and the Red Sox on Thursday. Christopher Morel will fill the open spot in left field and bat seventh.

Rays' Danny Jansen: Resting Thursday
Jansen isn't in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Red Sox, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
Jansen will head to the bench to begin Tampa Bay's four-game set against Boston after going 2-for-6 with an RBI and a run scored during the Rays' previous series in Detroit. Matt Thaiss will catch for Taj Bradley instead Thursday and bat eighth.

Rays' Brandon Lowe: Sitting fourth straight
Lowe (side) isn't in the lineup for Thursday's game against Boston, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
Thursday will mark the fourth consecutive start Lowe has missed since tweaking his left side during Sunday's contest. The Rays haven't indicated that the 31-year-old will need to spend time on the IL, though that could change if he's unable to return to the starting nine soon. While Lowe continues to recover, Taylor Walls will pick up another start at the keystone and bat ninth.

Rays' Eric Orze: Optioned to Triple-A
The Rays optioned Orze to Triple-A Durham on Thursday, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
His roster spot will be filled by Bryan Baker, who was acquired via trade earlier Thursday. Orze has been a trusted member of the Rays' bullpen for much of the season, but he's stumbled lately, allowing nine runs (eight earned) over his last 10.2 innings.

Rays' Xavier Isaac: Back on IL
Double-A Montgomery placed Isaac on the 7-day injured list July 6 with an undisclosed injury.
This is Isaac's second injured list stint of the year, as he missed the first two weeks of the season with an elbow injury. He also missed almost two weeks in early May with an undisclosed injury but he didn't land on the IL that time. Isaac most recently played June 25 and it seems the elbow injury he suffered in spring training may be affecting his play as well as his availability this season. He's slashing .201/.366/.446 with nine home runs, a 29.7 percent strikeout rate and a 19.4 percent walk rate in 41 games for the Biscuits.

Rays' Brailer Guerrero: Sidelined again
Single-A Charleston placed Guerrero on the 7-day injured list June 24 with an undisclosed injury.
Guerrero has not played in almost a month, and while we don't know the nature of his injury, he has missed significant time in multiple seasons due to right shoulder issues. In fact, Guerrero's 36 games played in 2025 more than doubled his career total of 35 games played across 2023 and 2024. The talented lefty slugger is slashing .230/.342/.378 with four home runs, eight steals and a 29.1 percent strikeout rate.
