    Oliver Drake: Heads to free agency

    Oliver Drake (elbow/neck/back) elected free agency after refusing an outright assignment to the minors Friday, radio broadcaster Steve Carney reports.Drake carried an elbow injury into last season and never wound up throwing a pitch in a game at any level, as he later developed neck and back issues in midseason. He was shut down from throwing late in the year, which may make him an unappealing option in free agency heading into his age-35 season.

    Rays' Oliver Drake: Currently not throwing

    Oliver Drake (elbow/neck/back) has been completely shut down from throwing for the time being due to a neck/back issue, the team's official site reports.Drake had been able to throw live batting practice sessions July 2 and July 7 at the Tampa Bay Rays' spring training complex without setbacks to his elbow, but he began to be bothered by neck and back and back soreness shortly thereafter. The issues apparently haven't subsided sufficiently for Drake to be able to continue rehabbing without restriction, meaning it appears he'll head into the offseason with a murky outlook on his potential availability for spring training.

    Rays' Oliver Drake: Done for season

    Oliver Drake (elbow) won't pitch again in 2021, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.Drake originally suffered a flexor strain in the ALDS last year and landed on the injured list shortly after signing with the Tampa Bay Rays in February, and he'll end up spending the entire 2021 campaign on the shelf. It's unclear if the injury will affect his outlook heading into spring training.

    Rays' Oliver Drake: Throwing again

    Oliver Drake (elbow/neck/back) was recently cleared to resume a throwing program, but he remains without a clear target date for a return from the 60-day injured list, Neil Solondz of the Tampa Bay Rays Radio Network reports.Drake has been sidelined all season while recovering from a right flexor strain suffered during the 2020 playoffs, and his return timeline was pushed back in mid-July when he was shut down after experiencing recurring neck and back soreness. He appears to have moved past the latter two injuries, but he'll still require additional time to get his arm in game condition. Since Drake has yet to even begin a minor-league rehab assignment, he appears unlikely to make his 2021 debut for the Rays until September.

    Rays' Oliver Drake: Suffers minor setback

    Oliver Drake (elbow) is dealing with neck and back soreness, which has delayed the start of his rehab assignment temporarily, Neil Solondz of the Tampa Bay Rays Radio Network reports.The right-hander was in line to begin a long-awaited rehab assignment with the Rays' Florida Complex League affiliate Tuesday, but the temporary setback has derailed those plans. Assuming the soreness isn't indicative of something more serious, Drake should be ready to make his first rehab appearance in the next few days.

    Rays' Oliver Drake: Rehab assignment starting Tuesday

    Oliver Drake (elbow) is scheduled to make his first rehab appearance Tuesday with the Tampa Bay Rays' Florida Complex League affiliate, Steve Carney of Sports Radio 620 WDAE reports.Drake is finally ready to begin the final phase of his extended recovery program from a right flexor strain, an injury he first suffered during the playoffs last fall. Tampa Bay is likely to ease the 34-year-old reliever back slowly from the injury, so he'll likely be in store for an extended rehab assignment that may not conclude until late July or early August. Over his 11 appearances for Tampa Bay in 2020, Drake posted a 5.73 ERA and 1.18 WHIP across 11 innings while collecting two saves and one hold.

The Tampa Bay Rays haven't provided any further updates on Drake's return date, so mid-July remains a realistic expectation.

    Rays' Oliver Drake: Still not particularly close

    Oliver Drake (elbow) hasn't experienced any setbacks, but he still has "got some time to wait" before starting a rehab assignment, the team's official site reports.The characterization of Drake's timeline comes directly from manager Kevin Cash, so it would seem the veteran reliever is still a few weeks away from being deemed ready for activation. Drake has been throwing bullpen sessions intermittently since mid-May, and he could progress to facing live hitters before the end of June.
