An 11th round pick in last year’s draft by the Chicago Cubs, Rollie Lacy is a promising right-hander who will enter 2019 with his third organization in as many years. Rollie who now joins the Tampa Bay Rays, is 23 years old and a product of Creighton.
He was traded by the Cubs to the Rangers in the Cole Hamels trade and only months later traded to the Rays in the three team trade that sent Jurickson Profar to Oakland and Emilio Pagan to Tampa.
In 2018 he earned a promotion to High-A ball after a solid full season debut.
