Tampa Bay Rays: Hot start not good enough for Jake Faria

To go along with yesterday’s wave of roster moves, the Tampa Bay Rays front office was active again today.

Jake Faria who followed a solid 2017 season with a terrible 2018 that saw him go just 65 innings to the tune of a 5.40 ERA before being sent down in the minors to try to figure things out.

This Spring, Jake Faria was fighting for a spot with the big league club, but when Kevin Cash announced the rare three man rotation to start the year, Faria’s only hope was being the follow-up act to one of the two Rays openers.
