  • Erasmo Ramirez: Becomes free agent

    Ramirez elected free agency Saturday, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

    Ramirez was designated for assignment by the Rays in late August but remained in the organization and finished the campaign in Triple-A. The right-handed hurler logged a 4.35 ERA, 1.06 WHIP and 15:10 K:BB over 20.2 innings while going 3-0 with one save in the majors last season. Ramirez worked as a starter early in his career but has been almost exclusively a reliever since 2019.

  • Rays' Erasmo Ramirez: Remains in organization

    Ramirez cleared waivers Tuesday and accepted an assignment to Triple-A Durham.

    The right-hander was designated for assignment by Tampa Bay over the weekend, but he'll stick in the organization after passing through waivers unclaimed. Ramirez has made 13 appearances with the Rays this season and posted a 4.35 ERA, 1.06 WHIP and 15:10 K:BB across 20.2 innings.

  • Rays' Erasmo Ramirez: Dropped from 40-man

    The Rays designated Ramirez for assignment Saturday.

    Just five days after joining the active roster, Ramirez will now lose his spot on the 40-man after allowing two runs and striking out six batters while walking four in 4.2 innings. The 34-year-old cleared waivers and accepted an outright assignment to Triple-A when he was DFA'd by Tampa Bay in May, though he may be claimed by another bullpen-needy team this time around.

  • Rays' Erasmo Ramirez: Returns to big leagues

    The Rays selected Ramirez's contract from Triple-A Durham on Monday.

    Ramirez will begin his second stint with the Rays of the season, as he was previously called up from Triple-A on April 20 and produced a 4.50 ERA and 1.06 WHIP over 16 innings before being cast off the 40-man roster about a month later. The Rays optioned lefty Jacob Lopez to Triple-A in a corresponding move to clear a spot on the active roster for Ramirez, who will likely fill a multi-inning role out of the bullpen.

  • Rays' Erasmo Ramirez: Expected to be called up Monday

    Ramirez is expected to have his contract selected from Triple-A Durham on Monday, Ari Alexander of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Ramirez was sent down in late May, but he'll return to the big leagues after producing a 3.20 ERA and 1.25 WHIP with 44 strikeouts over 39.1 innings in 27 appearances with Durham following his demotion. The right-hander will provide Tampa Bay with another veteran option out of the bullpen ahead of their three-game series in Seattle.

  • Rays' Erasmo Ramirez: Clears waivers

    Ramirez cleared outright waivers and accepted his assignment to Triple-A Durham on Friday.

    Ramirez was designated for assignment Wednesday by the Rays, but he'll stay in the organization. The right-hander delivered a 4.50 ERA, 1.06 WHIP and 9:6 K:BB across 16 innings with Tampa Bay this season.

  • Rays' Erasmo Ramirez: Removed from 40-man roster

    The Rays designated Ramirez for assignment Wednesday.

    Ramirez will move off Tampa Bay's 26-man active roster and 40-man roster after delivering a 4.50 ERA and 9:6 K:BB across 16 innings. The right-hander seems likely to clear waivers and could wind up remaining in the organization.

  • Rays' Erasmo Ramirez: Picks up unconventional save

    Ramirez recorded the final out in Thursday's win over Boston to earn the save.

    Jason Adam began the ninth inning and was in line to earn the save, but he was forced to leave the game after the Rays exceeded the limit for mound visits. Ramirez then entered the contest to record the final out with runners on first and third. He hasn't worked many high-leverage situations this season and isn't likely to see many moving forward given the depth of Tampa Bay's bullpen.

  • Rays' Erasmo Ramirez: Earns win in long relief

    Ramirez (2-0) walked one and struck out one across three scoreless innings to earn the win Monday against the White Sox.

    Ramirez followed starter Tyler Alexander into the game in the fifth inning and turned in his second consecutive scoreless appearance. Ramirez has worked primarily in long relief since being recalled to the Rays on April 21, as he's completed at least two frames in four of his six outings. Despite limited strikeout upside -- he has eight punchouts across 11.1 innings of work -- he could be in position to earn more wins than a traditional reliever.

  • Rays' Erasmo Ramirez: Selected to majors

    The Rays selected Ramirez's contract from Triple-A Durham on Saturday, Ryan Bass of Bally Sports Sun reports.

    Ramirez has allowed two earned runs and struck out 13 batters across 8.1 innings at Triple-A, and his hot start has now earned him a spot in the Rays' bullpen. The 33-year-old righty will likely pitch primarily in low-leverage situations after turning in a 6.41 ERA in the majors last season, and he'll take the place of Jacob Lopez, who was optioned to Durham in a corresponding move. Taylor Walls (hip) was moved to the 60-day IL to free up a spot on the 40-man roster.

  • Rays' Erasmo Ramirez: Returns to Rays on MiLB contract

    Tampa Bay re-signed Ramirez to a minor-league contract Monday.

    Ramirez was outrighted off the Rays' 40-man roster at the end of the 2023 regular season, but he's now back with the club on an MiLB deal for 2024. The 33-year-old right-hander owns a career 4.37 ERA in 828.1 big-league innings.

  • Rays' Erasmo Ramirez: Outrighted by Rays

    Ramirez cleared waivers and was outrighted to the Florida Complex League on Monday, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

    Ramirez is no longer on the Rays' 40-man roster and will not be part of their Wild Card Series roster against the Rangers, but he will work out with other at the team's spring training complex in Florida in case he's needed. The veteran reliever posted a 6.41 ERA over 38 appearances for the Nationals and Rays in 2023.

  • Rays' Erasmo Ramirez: Sent to minors

    Ramirez was designated for assignment Saturday.

    Ramirez pitched three innings Friday, allowing four earned on eight hits. He has not had a good September, posting a 6.92 ERA in 12.0 innings. In a corresponding move, Cooper Criswell was recalled from Triple-A.

  • Rays' Erasmo Ramirez: Tagged with five runs

    Ramirez allowed five runs on five hits and a walk over 3.1 innings in Friday's win over the Angels. He struck out three and did not factor in the decision.

    Most of the damage against Ramirez came in the second inning when Shohei Ohtani launched a grand slam. Ramirez has given up 10 runs over his last 7.2 frames, driving his season ERA up to 6.33. It's unclear if the Rays will use him as a starter again or send him back to the bullpen for bulk innings.

  • Rays' Erasmo Ramirez: Slated to pitch Friday

    Ramirez is listed as the Rays' probable starting pitcher for Friday's game against the Angels.

    The Rays could end up deploying Ramirez behind an opener Friday, but either way, he'll be slated to cover multiple innings in the first game of the series in Anaheim. Ramirez will be pitching on two days' rest, though he shouldn't be too tired after tossing just 18 pitches in one frame during his relief appearance in Tuesday's 7-0 loss to the Giants. He had covered between two and 3.1 innings in each of his prior four outings before Tuesday, so if he ends up starting Friday, the Rays may not ask Ramirez to cover the necessary five innings needed in order to qualify for a win.

  • Rays' Erasmo Ramirez: Tosses three innings

    Ramirez allowed one run on three hits and a walk while striking out three over three innings in Sunday's start against the Tigers. He did not factor into the decision.

    Ramirez threw a season-high 58 pitches to get the game started off for the Rays. The 33-year-old was given an early 5-0 cushion and encountered trouble only in the second by allowing three base hits in the inning. Ramirez has now yielded just one run in eight innings pitched since being called up July 30 and should remain a long-relief option with the team's starting depth being tested by injuries.

  • Rays' Erasmo Ramirez: Needed for spot start Sunday

    Ramirez will make a spot start Sunday against the Tigers in Detroit, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

    Since getting called up from Triple-A Durham a week ago, Ramirez made three-inning and two-inning appearances out of the bullpen, but he'll be called upon to make a spot start on short notice after Tyler Glasnow experienced back spasms late Saturday that will prevent him from taking the hill Sunday. Since he'll be pitching on three days' rest and hasn't covered more than four innings in any of his appearances in the majors or minors this season, Ramirez is unlikely to work deep enough into the start to qualify for a win. The Rays don't have an obvious candidate to work in bulk relief behind Ramirez and may be treating Sunday's contest as more of a bullpen day.

  • Rays' Erasmo Ramirez: Joining big club

    Ramirez had his contract selected by the Rays on Sunday, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

    The right-hander signed a minor-league deal with Tampa Bay in mid-June and will join the major-league club after making two appearances with Triple-A Durham. Ramirez had a 6.33 ERA over 27 innings for the Nationals earlier this season before being released, and he could provide some length out of the bullpen Sunday behind opener Zack Littell.

  • Rays' Erasmo Ramirez: Signs MiLB deal with Rays

    Ramirez signed a minor-league contract with the Rays on Monday, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

    Ramirez was released by Washington on Thursday and will now head to Triple-A Durham in an effort to make it back to the big leagues. He logged a 6.33 ERA and 1.56 WHIP through 27 innings with the Nationals this season.

  • Erasmo Ramirez: Released by Washington

    Ramirez was released by the Nationals on Thursday.

    After Ramirez was designated for assignment by Washington on Wednesday, the team officially released him one day later. The 33-year-old has posted a 6.33 ERA and 1.56 WHIP over 27 innings in 23 appearances with the Nationals this season.
