Right-hander Charlie Morton worked into the sixth inning of his second-to-last start of the Spring. The Tampa Bay Rays ultimately dropped the ballgame to the Pittsburgh Pirates, 4-2.

Morton retired the first 10 batters of the game before he allowed a one-out single to right-center.

I thought Charlie looked really good. We didn’t anticipate the sixth up, but he was so efficient that it kind of worked in our favor. Really good day as far as that’s concerned.

— Kevin Cash

Because he was able to efficiently plow through the Pirates’ lineup, Morton took the mound again in the sixth inning (to get an extra up-down). But, that’s when he ran into trouble. The right-hander walked Jacob Stallings to start the frame, then allowed an opposite-field single to Alfredo Reyes, before Morton was pulled in favor of Casey Sadler. Both runners eventually scored after Morton left.

Be that as it may, Morton hit 95 mph with his fastball and leaned on his offspeed stuff throughout his start. He finished with four punchouts and allowed just two hits (both singles) along with two walks while throwing 44 of 74 pitches for strikes (59% strike rate).

I feel good, I think my stuff is pretty good right now.

— Charlie Morton

Following the game, Rays skipper Kevin Cash told the media that Morton likely would be scaled back in his final Spring start on Saturday, against the Tigers — a subject Morton also touched on.

I’m not sure what we’re going to do because I was able to get six ups today. I think Kyle and I will talk about it and see what we want to get done next time.

— Charlie Morton

As Neil Solondz (Rays Radio) writes it, there was a scare in the outfield on Monday.

Kevin Kiermaier made a running catch in right-center on Colin Moran and collided with Austin Meadows. Meadows had his neck jarred a bit but stayed in the game and says he should be fine.

— Neil Solondz

Brandon Lowe continued his hot Spring campaign, going 1-for-3 on Monday while picking up his team-leading 14th RBI of the Spring with a double (seventh of the Grapefruit League season) in the sixth inning off Kyle Crick.

Even though Morton made the headlines, it was also a good day for third baseman Matt Duffy, who took the next step in his recovery process by running at 90%.

Duffy had a really good day He felt good. I’ll put a soft landing on (it that) he’ll play after (the) off-day. Let’s just see how we go the next couple of days.

— Kevin Cash

Duffy will run the bases again on Tuesday, which will be followed by treatment on Wednesday. How he responds will determine whether he will be ready for game action Thursday afternoon.

The New What Next

Tyler Glasnow will take the mound on Tuesday against the New York Yankees. Jalen Beeks and Emilio Pagan are also scheduled to pitch.

After dropping the first four Grapefruit League games of the 2019 season, the Tampa Bay Rays have bounced back and are on a four-game win streak, including yet another shellacking of the Baltimore Orioles, 10-5 on Friday. Charlie Morton made his Rays debut, tossing 1-1/3 perfect innings.

The right-hander threw 11 of 17 pitches for strikes and struck one of the four batters he faced. Morton sat in the 93-95 mph range on his four-seam fastball. He also threw a couple of two-seam fastballs (clocked at 91 mph), not to mention a couple of breaking balls. His lone strikeout came on a high 95 mph fastball.

He threw several more pitches in the bullpen after his outing, telling reporters the plan was to finish the first frame and be efficient enough to face a batter in the second.

We accomplished our goals. I went down and threw a couple more in the bullpen just to get a couple more, and felt good. I got what I needed to out of the day.

– Charlie Morton

At the moment, it isn’t certain when Morton will pitch again because of an off-day on Monday. If he doesn’t take the mound Wednesday, again versus Baltimore, then Morton will likely pitch Thursday against Toronto.

It’s always nice to cross the lines. Go out there, compete and do what you love to do. And also, go out there with the guys, finally.

– Charlie Morton

Meanwhile, Tampa Bay made it difficult for former teammate Alex Cobb, who allowed four runs and could not make it out of the first inning. Austin Meadows started the rally with a four-pitch walk before Daniel Roberton lined a single to right center. Ji-Man Choi followed with an RBI single to right, plating the first run of the game.

Two batters later Kevin Kiermaier drove home a run on a groundout before Guillermo Heredia capped the rally with a two-run blast to left field that landed well beyond the bleachers.

He’s an exciting player. He goes and gets it and when they’re both out there, (Kevin Kiermaier) and Heredia, it’s going to be tough to find grass with the baseball.

– Kevin Cash

Meadows later took Matt Wotherspoon deep in the fourth inning, while Daniel Robertson went 3-for-3 with a pair of runs scored on Friday.

Yonny Chirinos, Hunter Wood, Adam Kolarek, Luis Santos, Cole Sulser, and Andrew Kittredge also pitched for Tampa Bay. Kittredge tossed two innings of shutout ball, picking up a strikeout along the way.

The New What Next

The Rays will play a pair of split-squad games on Saturday. They will play host to the Phillies in Port Charlotte – and no, Bryce Harper is not expected to play – with Tyler Glasnow scheduled to make his second start of the Grapefruit League season. Diego Castillo is set to pitch for the third time this Spring. Tommy Pham, Joey Wendle, Avisail Garcia, Robertson, Yandy Diaz, Emilio Bonifacio, Michael Perez, and Andrew Velasquez are scheduled to be in the lineup in Port Charlotte.

In the other game, the travel squad will make its way north to Dunedin to take on former Rays bench coach Charlie Montoyo and the Blue Jays. Wilmer Font will get the start in his first appearance since a lat injury ended his season last June. Emilio Pagan and Austin Pruitt also are due to be on the mound. Brandon Lowe, Willy Adames, Austin Meadows, Nate Lowe, Heredia, Kean Wong, Jason Coats, and Nick Ciuffo are scheduled to be in the Rays’ lineup in Dunedin.

Tampa Bay Rays Spring Training, day three

By Leave a Comment

The rain cleared and the clouds parted in Port Charlotte on Thursday, and more than 12 Tampa Bay Rays pitchers threw off the mound, including number one and two starters Charlie Morton and Blake Snell.

Both hurlers got the chance to throw to catcher Mike Zunino, who was acquired from the Mariners this offseason. Zunino spoke with the pitchers after they threw, which made a big, early impact on the staff.

Rays manager Kevin Cash spoke highly of Zunino, who made a good first impression.

He’s energetic. And you already see why he’s made so many good relationships over the course of his career, just how outgoing the personality is.

— Kevin Cash

Snell also spoke in Superlatives about Zunino.

It was cool. Just kind of starting to get to understand each other, what I like to do and what he saw, so it was cool to just go back-and-forth on me helping him, and him helping me. I was very happy about it.

… For him, he’s very into it, so it could be as soon as when spring is over, it could be middle of the spring. It all depends on our relationship as 1) just friends, and 2) how hard do we want to work with each other to get to the place we want to get.

I’m already very comfortable talking to him. He’s very open, which is awesome to see. It feels like we’ve known each other for a while with the way that we talk. … For him to come in here and be as open and outgoing as he is right away is awesome to see. I like what he had to say back to me and I’m excited to see the relationship between us grow.

— Blake Snell

Hunter Wood, Jalen Beeks, Andrew Kittredge, Wilmer Font, and Adam Kolarek also threw bullpen sessions.

Cash was quite impressed with Pagan, who was acquired from Oakland. Pagan, who is competing for a spot in the bullpen, has been very good against right-handed hitters over the span of his career. Yet success against left-handed hitters has eluded him. Because of it, Pagan added a 12-6 curveball to his fastball/cutter/slider mix and is reportedly experimenting with a changeup.

I heard when we acquired him he’s got a chance to do some special things. And the first bullpen, the breaking balls, everything looked really crisp, s’o that was good to see.

— Kevin Cash

Font, who missed the final three months due to a lat strain, has already made a strong spring impression, and he has been asked to hold back a little because of it.

Wilmer is pretty impressive where he is from a physical standpoint. We asked him to kind of temper it down a little bit because he’s just lighting up catchers’ mitts right now.

— Kevin Cash

Kittredge spent a month of the offseason working with Driveline and continues to work with a weighted ball. The right-hander is anxious to see how the work may impact his stuff this spring.

He also spoke with Major League Baseball executive Joe Torre in December about having his three-game suspension rescinded and was pleased with the decision, which lifted a weight off his shoulders. He still has to pay a $1,500 fine for throwing at the head of Austin Romine (Yankees) in a late September game.

Daniel Robertson arrived in camp on Thursday, as 59 of 66 players have reported. According to his Twitter account, Kevin Kiermaier is set to arrive on Friday.

The New What Next

Pitcher and catcher workouts will continue on Friday. Reliever Chaz Roe, who tweaked his back, says he feels better and is on pace to throw on Saturday.

The New What Next: Rays vs Astros part two — a series preview

By Leave a Comment

The Rays look to continue their spate of winning against the Astros, starting Thursday. (Photo Credit: X-Rays Spex)

The Tampa Bay Rays and Houston Astros are set to start a four-game series on Thursday night, when they collide at Tropicana Field. The Rays have won five in a row — all at the expense of the Yankees and Nationals — and seven of their last nine. Houston is 4-1 in its last five contests after recently taking two of three from the Jays.

(Stats Credit: ESPN)

Tampa Bay started an incredibly tough stretch of play back on May 8, playing 51 games in 54 days. Over that span the Rays faced eight teams with a +.500 record, and went 24-27 overall, with four winning streaks of three or more games, and four losing streaks of three or more games. That seesaw certainly isn’t eye popping to say the least. However, they made hay against the Angels and Athletics, and most recently the Yankees and Nationals.

Pitching has been key to the Rays of late. Their five-game winning streak includes three shutouts and a 22-inning scoreless streak, while they have pitched to a combined 2.87 ERA since May 19 (best in the majors) when they launched their “game opener” strategy, with a .207 opponents batting average and a 1.11 WHIP (second best in the majors).

The pitching’s been outstanding, keeping us in every single ball game, manager Kevin Cash said. It’s kind of how we’re built. We’ve got to take advantage of it when we get it. And we’re getting it here of late.

(Stats Credit: FanGraphs)

Even thought they don’t have much to show for their success at the plate over the last 14-days, the Rays have performed well offensively since they last faced the Astros — averaging four runs per game, and slashing a combined .269 BA/.354 OBP/.450 SLG/.804 OPS/.349 wOBA/.325 BABIP line over the last week, with 25 runs (63% of all the runs they’ve scored over the last two weeks), a .181 ISO, and a 5.7 Weighted Runs Above Average (wRAA).

True, Tampa Bay closed out its most recent road trip by losing two of three in Houston, yet the team is perfect on its current nine-game home-stand. And in all fairness, the Rays could have won two of three against the Astros, as the loss in the first game of that particular series came by a run.

To be sure, it would be a fool’s errand to seek a four-game sweep of the Astros. The question then should be how will Tampa Bay bounce back from loss? Will the Rays drop three or more consecutive games, as they have throughout the season, or will they recover from a loss to win the very next game? A series split, in the least, will give them a far better chance to again climb over the .500 mark against their next four, sub .500, competitors: the Marlins, Mets, Tigers, and Twins.

Pitching Probables

Over the next four days Kevin Cash will lean on Ryne Stanek (1-1, 1.99 ERA) — who will likely be followed by Ryan Yarbrough (7-3, 3.96 ERA), Wilmer Font (1-1, 1.64 ERA), Matt Andriese (1-3, 4.02 ERA), and Blake Snell (10-4, 2.31 ERA). AJ Hinch will counter with Lance McCullers Jr. (8-3, 3.82 ERA), Gerrit Cole (9-1, 2.56 ERA), Justin Verlander (9-3, 1.82 ERA), and Charlie Morton (10-1, 2.54 ERA).

(Stats Credit: FanGraphs)

Ryne Stanek is one of the prime reasons for the team’s pitching success, having not allowed a run in 10 consecutive appearances, including five lead-off outings. Stanek has allowed just four hits during this stretch, while striking out 14 and walking five over 13 innings. Ryan Yarbrough threw 3-1/3 shutout innings against the Yankees last Friday, walking three but fanning four.

Lance McCullers Jr. picked up his fifth consecutive quality start, but settled for his second straight no-decision after allowing three runs on four hits over six innings of work in his last turn. McCullers struck out nine. The Tampa product owns a 5-2 record in nine starts away from Minute Maid Park, yet with a 4.83 road ERA. This season he has relied primarily on a hard 87 mph 12-6 curveball and a 95 mph sinker with some armside run, while also mixing in a whiffy 88 mph changeup with obvious armside fade. The right-hander is 0-2 with an alarming 6.00 ERA in losing both of his careers starts at Tropicana Field.

Wilmer Font shut down one of baseball’s most potent offenses on Saturday, stymying a silent Yankees team.

Font threw 5-2/3 solid innings — his longest outing in the Majors — and allowed just three hits, walking just one and striking out four. It was the 28-year-old’s first big league victory (in his 26th appearance and fourth start). He has progressively increased the length of his appearances, from 2-1/3 innings to 3-1/3 to 4-2/3 and now 5-2/3.

It’s exciting, and I’m very happy, said Font, who was acquired by the Rays on May 25 and is playing with his third organization (Dodgers, Athletics) this season. I was trying to attack from the start. The first pitch was very important. After that, work the corners. I felt very, very good today.

Since joining the Rays, he is 1-1 with a 1.63 ERA in eight appearances (four starts). While there is still a lot of work for him to do, as Marc Topkin (Tampa Bay Times) writes, Font may turn out to be a steal for the Rays off the discard pile given his physical tools, maturity and hunger at age 28 to finally succeed.

Gerrit Cole fanned eight over five one-run innings on Sunday against Kansas City. He allowed two hits and three walks along the way. Cole limited baserunners, with the only run against him coming on a Lucas Duda solo shot in the fourth. The Royals fouled off 27 pitches to help push Cole’s pitch count, resulting in his removal after collecting just 15 outs. Despite the short outing, Cole bounced back from allowing four earned runs in each of his last two starts, including four runs on three hits and five walks against Tampa Bay on June 18. Cole is now 0-0 with a 5.14 ERA against the Rays. Key Matchups: CJ Cron (1-4, 2B, RBI), Carlos Gomez (6-14, 3B, 2 BB), Wilson Ramos (3-12, 2 HR, 4 RBI, BB), Joey Wendle (1-3, 2 RBI)

Matt Andriese gave up three runs on three hits and two walks while striking out one in the Rays’ bullpen day on Sunday. His ERA jumped from 3.68 to 4.02 after the outing. Andriese followed 16 consecutive appearances in which he allowed two earned runs or fewer, with two straight starts in which he gave up three runs in each — including a 2-2/3 inning, three run start against the Astros on June 18.

Justin Verlander allowed four runs on seven hits and two walks with six punch outs over 6-2/3 innings of a loss against the Blue Jays on Monday. Home runs have been an issue for Verlander lately, as he has allowed six homers in his past four starts after giving up just five over his first 13 outings. The result was the first time all season that Verlander allowed more than three runs, pushing his ERA all the way up to 1.82. The right-hander gave up a second inning solo shot to CJ Cron in a 1-2 loss to the Rays on June 19, but otherwise struck out 10. Verlander is 5-2 with a 2.53 ERA in eight career starts at Tropicana Field. Key Matchups: Matt Duffy (1-3), Wilson Ramos (1-3), Joey Wendle (2-3, 2B)

Blake Snell slammed the door on the Nationals over the balance of his seven inning, one hit start after he allowed a pair of first inning free passes.

I got pissed; I was annoyed, said Snell on the subject of walking the first two batters.

The left-hander carried a no-hitter into the seventh inning until Anthony Rendon led off the frame with a double off the left field wall. Snell walked two more batters in the frame, although he was able to escape with the shutout intact. Snell fanned 10 and lowered his home ERA from 0.96 to 0.70, extending his club record by allowing just one earned run or fewer in a 10th straight home start.

Marc Topkin (Tampa Bay Times) also dished some noteworthiness relating to Snell’s phenomenal outing:

Retired 18 straight, tying the third-longest streak of consecutive batters retired in team history, behind Matt Garza (22) on July 26, 2010, vs.
Detroit and Chris Archer (19) on July 29, 2015 vs. Detroit.

Made the 11th scoreless start of his career and matched the longest scoreless start of his career.

Reached double-digit strikeouts for the fourth time in his career, third this season. No other Rays pitcher has done so.

Became the seventh Ray to reach double-digit wins
before the All-Star break, first since Matt Moore (13) in 2013.

Allowed two runs or fewer for an AL-most 14th time this season, matching Washington’s Max Scherzer for most in the majors. And allowed one run or fewer for the 10 time, matching most in the majors.

Charlie Morton struck out 13 over seven scoreless frames on Tuesday against the Blue Jays. Morton allowed four hits and two walks en route to a win. The right-hander relinquished zero extra-base hits and threw 67 of 98 pitches for strikes (68% strike rate) in his dominant outing — the fifth time this season that Morton has recorded double-digit strikeouts. Morton now sports a 3.13 K/BB over 95-2/3 innings and a .195 batting average against, making him one of only seven pitchers in the big leagues to hold opponents under a .200 average. In his last start against Tampa Bay, Morton allowed just one run on two hits and four walks, although he is 0-2 with a 5.25 ERA in two career starts at the Trop. Key Matchups: Jake Bauers (1-1, 2B, 2 BB), Matt Duffy (1-3), Carlos Gomez (6-18, HR, 5 RBI, BB), Wilson Ramos (5-14, RBI, 3 BB)

The New What Next: Rays vs Astros — a series preview

The American League East will square off with the American League West, when the Tampa Bay Rays begin a three-game series against the Houston Astros at Minute Maid Park on Monday. The Rays followed a three-game sweep against the Blue Jays by dropping three-of-four to the Yankees, while the Astros have won 11 in a row.

With the win on Sunday, the Rays snapped a nine-game road losing streak, their longest since 2016.

(Stats Credit: ESPN)

The Rays struggled in the series against the Yankees, plating a total of seven runs in the four games. It, frankly, will not get any easier for in their upcoming against the Astros, who have the top ERA in the American League. For their part, the reigning World Series champs scored 24 runs in their series with the Royals.

(Stats Credit: FanGraphs)

Tampa Bay’s offense has dramatically regressed, due in large part to a 25.5% strikeout rate. In fact, the Rays’ 13.2% SwStr rate is a mere eight points lower that the Astros overall strikeout rate over the last 14 days. What’s more, the overall batting average, walk rate and on base percentage have fallen over the same span of time, meaning they’ve left a lot chicken on the bone when given the opportunity to plate some runs.

Pitching Probables

Kevin Cash will lean on Ryne Stanek (1-1, 2.55 ERA) — who likely will be followed by Matt Andriese (1-3, 3.27 ERA) — Blake Snell (8-4, 2.58 ERA), and Nathan Eovaldi (1-2, 4.63 ERA) the next three days. A.J. Hinch will respond with Gerrit Cole (8-1, 2.40 ERA), Justin Verlander (9-2, 1.61 ERA), and Charlie Morton (8-1, 2.94 ERA).

(Stats Credit: FanGraphs)

Ryne Stanek will get the nod ahead of Matt Andriese on Monday. Stanek has been very good over his last 14-innings of work, allowing just two runs on six hits while fanning 15. He is in the midst of an eight inning, six-game scoreless streak. Andriese allowed just two hits and one walk across 3-2/3 innings on Wednesday against Toronto. He struck out two. It was a nice bounce-back performance for the right-hander, who had allowed eight runs (five earned) over his previous five appearances (11 innings of work). Andriese now owns a solid 3.27 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 5.00 K/BB over 41-1/3 innings this season.

Gerrit Cole allowed four runs on six hits and two walks across six innings. He struck out six. Cole allowed a pair of homers, but but otherwise pounded the zone after the Astros lineup staked him to a 10-run lead over the first two frames. The right-hander ate innings, avoided any major uprisings and earned his sixth consecutive win (his third straight start). This season Cole has relied primarily on a whiffy 97 mph four-seam fastball with some slight armside run, an 89 mph slider, and an 83 mph worm-killer curveball with sharp downward bite and some glove-side movement. He is 2-1 with a 2.66 ERA in six starts at Minute Made Park. Key Matchups: C.J. Cron (1-1, 2B, RBI), Carlos Gomez (5-12, 3B, BB)

Blake Snell allowed four runs on five hits and four walks over five innings on Thursday. He struck out eight. Snell had won his last four decisions heading in to this tough matchup against the Yankees, last taking a loss on May 13 against the Orioles. That was also the last time he allowed more than two earned runs. Even with the rough outing, the southpaw has performed to a stellar 2.58 ERA across 87-1/3 innings with a 3.34 K/BB. Snell is 0-1 with a 7.50 ERA in three career starts against Houston.

Justin Verlander allowed three runs on five hits while striking out seven across seven innings against the Athletics on Thursday. It wasn’t Verlander’s sharpest performance, as the right-hander allowed a pair of homers in the game, but it got the job done. At the end of May he owned a 1.11 ERA, although that number jumped to a still-pristine 1.61 after Thursday’s contest. This season Verlander has relied on a whiffy 95 mph four-seam fastball with good “rising” action, and an 87 mph slider. He has also mixed in an 80 mph curveball with sharp downward bite. The 35 year-old is 8-3 with a 3.29 ERA in 16 career starts against the Rays. Key Matchups: Rob Refsnyder (2-2, RBI), Mallex Smith (1-4, BB)

Nathan Eovaldi allowed five runs over 7-1/3 innings in his last start on Friday. He struck out five. Eovaldi largely cruised through the Yankees lineup, with the exceptions of a third inning solo shot and a sixth inning sac fly, before running out of gas in a three-run eighth. Eovaldi has been hit or miss in his four starts since returning from the DL, allowing three runs or more in three of those starts. He is 1-0 with a 2.52 ERA in four career starts against the Astros.

Charlie Morton allowed three runs on four hits over six innings against the Royals on Friday. He struck out nine and walked four. Morton gave up a two-run double to Mike Moustakas in the third inning then later walked Moustakas with the bases loaded in the fifth. The walks are a problem for Morton (he walked six in 3-2/3 innings in his previous start), but he was still able to come away with the win thanks to an Evan Gattis grand slam. The right-hander has performed to a 2.94 ERA and 1.14 WHIP along with an excellent 3.18 K/BB over 82-2/3 innings. This season Morton has relied primarily on a 97 mph four-seam fastball with obvious tail and natural sinking action, a whiffy 80 mph knuckle curveball with sweeping glove-side movement and sharp downward bite, and a 96 mph two-seam sinker with some slight armside run, while also mixing in a whiffy 89 mph cutter and an 88 mph splitter with armside fade. Morton is 1-2 with a 4.50 ERA in three career starts against the Rays. Key Matchups: Matt Duffy (1-3), Carlos Gomez (6-16, HR), Adeiny Hechavarria (2 2B, BB), Wilson Ramos (5-13, RBI, BB)
