Cory Rasmus: Released by Rays
Cory Rasmus (groin) was released by the Rays on Friday, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.The 29-year-old righty has been dealing with a groin injury throughout spring camp and simply didn't have a role in the minors. Rasmus appeared in 19 games for the Angels last season, posting a 5.84 ERA and a 1.66 WHIP over 24.2 innings, but appears to be on the move without making an impact in Tampa Bay. He'll look to latch on with a minor-league contract elsewhere.

Rays' Cory Rasmus: Will sign with Rays
Cory Rasmus has agreed to a minor league contract with Tampa Bay, Marc Topkin of The Tampa Bay Times reports.Rasmus will join the same organization as his brother, Colby, after spending the last four seasons with the Angels. The right-hander missed most of last season after undergoing groin surgery and struggled upon his return. He finished 2016 with a 5.84 ERA over 24.2 innings in relief and was designated for assignment in November. Rasmus likely provides organizational depth, but could be an option to fill the bullpen vacancy left by Kevin Jepsen.
