Farquhar pitched a scoreless inning and struck out a batter in Wednesday's 5-3 victory over the Blue Jays.
The five-year veteran has been able to extend his impressive work from the spring into his first two appearances of the regular season. He's fanned three of the eight batters he's faced, and held opposing hitters to a .143 average while throwing 27 of his 41 pitches for strikes. Farquhar is one of several Rays relievers that will continue holding down the fort until Brad Boxberger's (abdomen) return, but ideally slots as a sixth-to-seventh-inning type specialist that bridges the gap from starter to setup man.
