  • Rays' Alex Cook: Back with Tampa Bay

    The Rays recalled Cook from Triple-A Durham on Friday.

    Just two days after being sent down to Durham, Cook is back with the big-league club Friday. The 25-year-old has made just two appearances in the majors, but in Triple-A he owns a 4.64 ERA, 1.13 WHIP and 46:15 K:BB over 42.2 innings. With Shane McClanahan (forearm) sidelined for at least 15 days, Cook will take his spot on the expanded 28-man roster.

  • Rays' Alex Cook: Returns to big leagues

    The Rays recalled Cook from Triple-A Durham on Tuesday.

    Cook allowed three runs with a 2:2 K:BB over 3.2 innings in his first two major-league appearances. He's being sent down in order to free up a spot on the active roster for right-hander Freddy Peralta, who was acquired from the Mets on Sunday.

  • Rays' Alex Cook: Back from intercostal strain

    Triple-A Durham activated Cook (intercostal) from the 7-day injured list May 23.

    Cook, after missing a little over two weeks of action due to an intercostal strain, has turned in back-to-back scoreless outings since returning to the mound. The 25-year-old right-hander has made 13 appearances (three starts) at the Triple-A level in 2026, posting a 5.02 ERA, 1.19 WHIP and 16:7 K:BB covering 14.1 innings.

  • Rays' Alex Cook: Out with intercostal strain

    Cook was placed on the 7-day injured list Monday due to a right intercostal strain, per MLB.com.

    Through 12.1 innings for Triple-A Durham before getting injured, the 25-year-old right-hander posted a 5.84 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 15:6 K:BB. Cook's timetable for a return to the mound is unclear, but he could end up missing multiple weeks before being cleared.

  • Rays' Alex Cook: Optioned to minors

    The Rays optioned Cook to minor-league camp Sunday.

    The 24-year-old was added to Tampa Bay's 40-man roster in November but was always a longshot to crack the Opening Day roster. Cook missed some time in 2025 due to injuries but pitched well for Double-A Montgomery when available, finishing with a 2.30 ERA, 0.86 WHIP and 18:3 K:BB over 15.2 innings.

  • Rays' Alex Cook: Protected from Rule 5 Draft

    The Rays selected Cook's contract from Double-A Montgomery on Tuesday, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

    Cook came to the Rays as a 12th-round selection in the 2022 First-Year Player Draft. The right-hander has worked mostly as a reliever in the minors, and he turned in a nice 18:3 K:BB over 15.2 innings while posting a 2.30 ERA and 0.86 WHIP across 13 appearances in his first taste of Double-A ball last season. Cook dealt with some injuries last year, but if he can stay healthy and continue to impress next season, he should get a chance to move up to the Triple-A level.
