As the Winter Meetings head into the final day, the Tampa Bay Rays continue in conversations concerning the availability of their players with numerous teams. While no trades are imminent, there is considerable interest from a few teams regarding not only starters, but also some of the Rays relievers.
Joining the conversation on Wednesday were Erasmo Ramirez and closer Alex Colome who have sparked considerable interest. Ramirez was “the subject of conversation” per Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times.
There was some speculation when the salary projections of arbitration eligible players were made available that the Rays would have to make a decision regarding Ramirez.
