Rays' Ralph Garza: Summoned from minors
The Rays recalled Garza from Triple-A Durham on Tuesday, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
Tampa Bay was in need of some fresh arms in relief after the team used five pitchers as part of a bullpen game in Monday's 10-5 win over the Red Sox, so Garza and Tommy Romero were elevated from Triple-A to give the big club some length. Josh Fleming (oblique) and Luke Bard -- who both covered three innings apiece Monday -- were placed on the 15-day injured list and optioned to Triple-A Durham, respectively, to open up space on the active roster for Fleming and Romero.

Rays' Ralph Garza: Dispatched to minors
The Rays optioned Garza to Triple-A Durham on Sunday.
In addition to the five relievers that were already on the injured list heading into the weekend, the Rays added Brooks Raley and Ryan Thompson to restricted list prior to their series in Toronto. As a result, the Rays are shorthanded in the bullpen, so Garza -- who worked two scoreless innings during the second game of Saturday's doubleheader -- will be swapped off the active roster for a fresh arm. Tampa Bay called up right-hander Cristofer Ogando from Triple-A in a corresponding move.

Rays' Ralph Garza: Recalled by Tampa Bay
Garza was recalled from Triple-A Durham on Wednesday, Neil Solondz of the Rays Radio Network reports.
Garza was sent down Saturday but remained with the Rays via the taxi squad over the last few days. He'll rejoin the active roster after Drew Rasmussen (hamstring) was placed on the 15-day injured list Wednesday. Rasmussen was slated to start Thursday's matchup against the Yankees, but the Rays haven't yet announced who will take his place in the rotation. If Tampa Bay elects for a bullpen game Thursday, Garza should be a candidate to pitch multiple innings.

Rays' Ralph Garza: Moves up to big club
The Rays recalled Garza from Triple-A Durham on Tuesday.
Garza will provide the Rays with some extra coverage out of the bullpen after the Rays needed four relievers and outfielder Brett Phillips to cover the final 8.1 innings of Monday's 13-2 loss to the Athletics following starter Luis Patino's (oblique) early exit. If Garza is pressed into action Tuesday behind starter Tommy Romero for multiple innings, he could be sent back to Durham immediately after the contest in exchange for another fresh arm out of the bullpen.

Rays' Ralph Garza: Scooped up by Rays
The Rays claimed Garza off waivers from the Red Sox on Thursday, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
Garza has now been scooped up off waivers by three different organizations in the past eight months, with his stop with the Rays preceded by stints with the Twins and Red Sox. The Rays cleared room for Garza on the 40-man roster by recalling Brendan McKay from Triple-A Durham and then placing him on the 60-day injured list while he continues his recovery from thoracic outlet syndrome surgery. Garza has two minor-league options remaining, so he'll most likely head to Durham to begin his time with the Rays organization.

Twins' Ralph Garza: Removed from 40-man roster
Minnesota designated Garza for assignment Tuesday, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports.
The Twins cast Garza off the 40-man roster to clear a spot for shortstop Carlos Correa, whose three-year deal with Minnesota became official Tuesday. Garza worked exclusively out of the bullpen between stops in Houston and Minnesota in 2021, submitting a 3.56 ERA and 1.25 WHIP across 30.1 innings over 27 appearances. The right-hander exited just one pitch into his Grapefruit League debut Sunday after feeling the effects of an illness, but he looks to be healthy now after he returned to action Monday and delivered a scoreless inning out of the bullpen.
