Rays' Osvaldo Bido: Claimed by Tampa Bay
The Rays claimed Bido off waivers from Atlanta on Friday.
Bido has now bounced around via waivers from the Athletics to Atlanta and now to Tampa Bay this month. The right-hander had an unsightly 5.87 ERA and 18.7 percent strikeout rate in 2025, but he was much better in 2024 with a 3.41 ERA and 24.3 percent strikeout rate. Bido does not have minor-league options left, but he offers the flexibility to be used either in a starting or relief role.

Rays' Anderson Brito: Dealt to Tampa Bay
The Rays acquired Brito and Jacob Melton from the Astros on Friday in a three-team trade that sent Mike Burrows to the Astros and Brandon Lowe, Jake Mangum and Mason Montgomery to the Pirates, Chandler Rome and Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic report.
The 21-year-old right-hander spent the entire 2025 campaign at High-A Asheville and started all 12 games in which he appeared, registering a 3.28 ERA and 11.9 K/9 across 49.1 innings. Brito missed some time with an unspecified injury but was back to full strength in October.

Rays' Jacob Melton: Shipped to Tampa Bay
The Rays acquired Melton and Anderson Brito from the Astros on Friday in a three-team trade that sent Mike Burrows to the Astros and Brandon Lowe, Jake Mangum and Mason Montgomery to the Pirates, Chandler Rome and Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic report.
Melton was one of Houston's top prospects, and the 25-year-old got his first taste of MLB action last season, appearing in 32 games for the Astros. The outfielder slashed .157/.234/.186 with one triple, seven RBI, seven runs scored, seven stolen bases and a 6:29 BB:K across 78 big-league plate appearances. He figures to initially slot into Tampa Bay's outfield mix behind Chandler Simpson, Cedric Mullins, Josh Lowe and potentially even Jake Fraley.

Rays' Austin Overn: Shipped to Rays
The Rays acquired Overn, Slater de Brun, Caden Bodine and Michael Forret from the Orioles on Friday in exchange for Shane Baz, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.
It's a big haul for Tampa Bay, but it's a seller's market and Baz is under team control for three more seasons. Overn split last season between High-A and Double-A, and he posted a .753 OPS across both levels while totaling 13 home runs and 63 stolen bases in 114 games.

Rays' Michael Forret: Shipped to Rays
The Rays acquired Forret, Slater de Brun, Caden Bodine, Austin Overn and a Competitive Balance Round A pick from the Orioles on Friday in exchange for Shane Baz, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.
Forret began the 2025 season at High-A Aberdeen and finished it at Double-A Chesapeake, holding a sparkling 1.58 ERA, 0.82 WHIP and 91:21 K:BB over 74 innings between the two stops. The right-hander will be heading into his age-22 season and is likely to begin the year at Double-A Montgomery.

Rays' Slater de Brun: On move to Tampa Bay
The Rays acquired de Brun, Caden Bodine, Michael Forret, Austin Overn and a Competitive Balance Round A pick from the Orioles on Friday in exchange for Shane Baz, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.
De Brun was the 37th overall pick in the 2025 First-Year Player Draft and has not yet made his professional debut. The 18-year-old doesn't have power but is known for his hit tool and speed, and he's expected to stick in center field. The Rays will take de Brun's development slowly.

Rays' Caden Bodine: Dealt to Tampa Bay
The Rays acquired Bodine, Slater de Brun, Michael Forret and Austin Overn from the Orioles in exchange for Shane Baz on Friday, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.
The 22-year-old Bodine was selected 30th overall during the 2025 First-Year Player Draft by Baltimore and will now change organizations after just one professional season. He had a .757 OPS in 11 games for Single-A Delmarva in 2025 and should begin 2026 in the lower minors for Tampa Bay.

Rays' Shane McClanahan: Avoids arbitration with Rays
The Rays and McClanahan (triceps) avoided arbitration by agreeing to a one-year, $3.6 million contract Wednesday, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
It's the same salary McClanahan was paid each of the last two seasons. The left-hander did not pitch at all in 2024 while recovering from Tommy John surgery and was limited to only three rehab starts in 2025 due to a nerve issue in his left triceps that eventually required surgery. The expectation is that McClanahan will be ready for the start of spring training, but he's a major health risk heading into the 2026 season.

Rays' Steven Matz: Will get another chance to start
Rays president of baseball operations Erik Neander said Tuesday that Matz will be given a chance to open the season in the rotation, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
Neander said that Matz -- whose two-year, $15 million contract became official Tuesday -- has "a real desire" to be a starting pitcher again, and the "the investment was made with that in mind." All but two of Matz's 53 regular-season appearances in 2025 came out of the bullpen, but the 34-year-old has predominantly been a starter in his career. He posted a 3.05 ERA and 59:11 K:BB over 76.2 regular-season frames between the Cardinals and Red Sox this past season.

Rays' Tristan Peters: Cut from 40-man roster
The Rays designated Peters for assignment Tuesday.
The transaction clears a spot on the 40-man roster for Steven Matz, whose signing was made official Tuesday. Peters went 0-for-12 with seven strikeouts during his brief time with the Rays in 2025 and slashed .266/.355/.429 at Triple-A Durham. He stands a good chance of passing through waivers unclaimed.

Rays' Tommy McCollum: Dealt to Tampa Bay
The Rays acquired McCollum from the Phillies on Wednesday in exchange for Yoniel Curet, Matt Gelb of The Athletic reports.
McCollum pitched at three different levels in 2025, finishing with a 3.07 ERA and 59:16 K:BB over 55.2 innings. The 26-year-old reliever has not yet reached the majors and will likely begin the 2026 season at Triple-A Durham.

Rays' Logan Davidson: Inks pact with Rays
Davidson signed a minor-league contract with Tampa Bay on Monday, which includes an invitation to spring training, Ari Alexander of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Davidson bounced between the Athletics and Angels during the 2025 campaign, slashing .167/.222/.286 with one home run, four RBI and three runs scored in 19 games. He'll have a chance to crack the Opening Day roster after receiving an invitation to big-league camp.

Rays' Steven Matz: Latches on with Tampa Bay
Matz agreed to a two-year contract with the Rays on Monday, Jon Heyman of the New York Post reports.
Matz will suit up for the sixth different team in his veteran career after coming to terms on what's believed to be a multi-year contract with Tampa Bay. The southpaw was used in a variety of scenarios during the 2025 campaign with Boston and St. Louis, which included him securing the first two saves of his big-league career along with five wins. He logged 76.2 innings across 53 appearances last season. It's unclear whether the Rays are planning to use Matz as a starter or reliever.
