Tampa Bay Rays Agree to Terms with Veteran Reliever

That's obviously a slight typo, as we're sure that the buyout is actually $100,000. 

The 33-year-old reliever finished his 2023 season with the Rays, helping Tampa Bay win 99 games and advance to the American League wild card round. They were beaten in two games by the eventual World Series champion Texas Rangers.

Devenski began the year with the Los Angeles Angels and went a combined 6-4 with a 4.46 ERA. He struck out 42 batters in 42.1 innings.

Devenski just finished his eighth year in the big leagues with the Rays, Angels, Phillies, Diamondbacks and Astros. He made his true mark with the Astros, pitching with Houston from 2016-2020. He helped the Astros win the 2017 World Series, when they beat the Los Angeles Dodgers.

A changeup specialist, Devenski should figure to be a big part of the Rays' pitching staff. It's a pitching staff that is already decimated by injury as Shane McClanahan, Drew Rasmussen and Jeffrey Springs are all expected to miss significant time (if not the entirety) next season.

On top of that, the Rays could possibly trade Tyler Glasnow this offseason.
