Fernando Rodney slammed the door on the Blue Jays on Tuesday, picking up his 11th save of the season with a perfect ninth inning.
Rodney fanned two of the three hitters he faced and now boasts a spectacular 0.51 ERA and 17/3 strikeout-to-walk ratio in 17 2/3 innings this season. With as well as Rodney has pitched, he should keep the ninth-inning gig even when Kyle Farnsworth returns from his right elbow strain.
May 15 - 9:54 PM
Fernando Rodney improved to 9-for-9 in save chances with a perfect inning Thursday against the Mariners.
Rodney has identical 0.73 ERAs and WHIPs after 14 appearances. We're not sure how they do it, but the Rays certainly do have quite a way with seemingly washed up relievers.
May 3 - 5:12 PM
Fernando Rodney recorded his fifth save of the season in as many tries as the Rays defeated the Twins on Saturday.
James Shields pitched into the ninth inning but allowed runners to reach second and third with no outs before Rodney was called upon to close it out. He responded in kind and easily diffused the situation, locking up the Rays' win. Rodney has been impressive in his brief stint as Tampa Bay's closer.
Apr 21 - 10:26 PM
Fernando Rodney got two outs against the Red Sox on Monday for a save in 1-0 game.
Rodney has pitched a full inning in just one of his four saves, but that hardly matters to his fantasy owners. After coming in with one out and a man on first today, he allowed a groundout that advance the runner, he intentionally walked David Ortiz and then he struck out Cody Ross with five pitches out of the strike zone. No, Ross wasn't chasing; Rodney was simply given the outside corner and then some by Larry Vanover.

Jose Lobaton
D.L.
Jose Lobaton (shoulder) will continue his minor league rehab assignment with Double-A Montgomery.
Lobaton began his rehab stint Saturday with High-A Charlotte and went 0-for-5 in two games. The 27-year-old has been on the shelf since mid-April due to right shoulder soreness. It's not clear when he'll rejoin the Rays, but he's obviously getting close.

Robinson Chirinos
D.L.
Rays transferred C Robinson Chirinos (concussion) to the 60-day disabled list.
The move clears a spot for Brandon Allen on the 40-man roster. Chirinos was concussed by a foul tip late in spring training. He won't be eligible to return until May 26, though it's possible he won't have a spot on the 25-man roster if the Rays end up liking what they see from Chris Gimenez.

Brandon Allen
D.L.
Rays placed OF/1B Brandon Allen on the 15-day disabled list with a right quad strain.
Allen has dealt with the issue for a couple weeks now and it tightened up on him while he was running to second base during Wednesday's game. The injury means that Brandon Guyer will stick around a little longer than originally expected.

Evan Longoria
D.L.
Rays placed 3B Evan Longoria on the 15-day disabled list with a partially torn left hamstring.
Longoria will be idle for the next four weeks and could be absent from the Rays' lineup for as long as two months. The 26-year-old third baseman was batting .329/.433/.561 with four homers and 19 RBI in 23 games.

Desmond Jennings
D.L.
Rays placed OF Desmond Jennings on the 15-day disabled list, retroactive to May 12, with a left knee sprain.
As expected. Jennings was used as a pinch-hitter on Friday, so he will not be eligible to return until May 27. Of course, given how little progress he has made with his knee injury, he might need the extra time to get back to 100 percent. The Rays have called up Stephen Vogt in corresponding roster move.
May 14

Sam Fuld
D.L.
Rays transferred OF Sam Fuld from the 15-day to the 60-day disabled list.
The move clears a spot on the 40-man roster for the recently-promoted Chris Gimenez. Fuld is expected to miss the 4-5 months following wrist surgery, putting his 2012 season in jeopardy.

Jeff Niemann
D.L.
Rays placed RHP Jeff Niemann on the 15-day disabled list with a fractured right fibula.
Niemann suffered the injury when he was hit in the right leg by a comebacker during Monday's start against the Blue Jays. The early estimate is that he'll miss four to six weeks, which places his return in late June or early July. No word yet on a corresponding roster move, but the Rays figure to add a reliever for now. Wade Davis seems to have found a home in the bullpen, so Alex Cobb or Chris Archer are logical alternatives to replace Niemann in the starting rotation.

Kyle Farnsworth
D.L.
Rays transferred RHP Kyle Farnsworth from the 15-day disabled list to the 60-day disabled list.
Farnsworth is still making his way back from an early-April elbow strain. He's aiming to being throwing soon, but the right-hander won't be eligible to return until June 5. Fernando Rodney has a real opportunity to run away with ninth-inning duties.

Matt Bush
Suspended
A judge in Charlotte County, Florida has reduced Matt Bush's bail from $1.015 million to $440,000.
The number is still probably out of Bush's price range, considering the reports that he had only $2,000 left in his bank account when he struck a 72-year-old motorcyclist in March while drunk. The former No. 1 overall pick is facing charges of DUI, hit-and-run and property damage. He's likely done with professional baseball for good.
