MLB Trade Rumors: Tampa Bay Rays have expressed interest in Milwaukee Brewers 1B Jesus Aguilar

According a report from Mark Feinsand and Juan Toribio of MLB.com, the Tampa Bay Rays have ‘expressed interest’ in acquiring first baseman Jesus Aguilar from the Milwaukee Brewers.

Sources tell me and @juanctoribio that the Rays have expressed interest to the Brewers in Jesus Aguilar. He’s performed better in July (1.080 OPS) than the first three months (.634 OPS), so deal would have to help Milwaukee now for Brewers to move Aguilar.

The Rays offense has been in a tailspin for the past two months and if not for the emergence of Travis d’Arnaud the past several weeks, things could have been a lot worse.
