The Rays continue to make moves ahead of the December 1 tender deadline (and the potential lockout). In addition to their earlier signing of Corey Kluber last week, they don’t appear to be quite finished with the pitcher market, and are adding arms to bolster their bullpen.
According to Ken Rosenthal, the Rays have agreed to a two-year deal, with a one-year option, worth $10 million with left-handed reliever Brooks Raley, who was most recently with the Houston Astros.
Raley, who is 33, has spent some inconsistent time in the majors since his 2012 major league debut with the Cubs.
