Rays To Designate Adam Moore

By Mark Polishuk | July 25, 2018 at 5:37pm CDT

The Rays will designate catcher Adam Moore for assignment, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports (Twitter link).  The transaction will create room for newly-acquired catcher Michael Perez to join the Rays’ roster tomorrow.

Moore ended up playing just one game for the Rays after his contract was selected by the team earlier this week.  That one game marked Moore’s first MLB action since 2016, as 2017 was the only season within the last decade that Moore didn’t get at least a cup of coffee in the Show.  Moore only has 97 games and 295 PA to his big league resume, though the well-traveled veteran has seen time with the Mariners, Royals, Padres, and Indians before suiting up for the Rays.

The 34-year-old Moore has a .534 career OPS as a Major Leaguer.  He signed a minor league deal with Tampa Bay last winter, and it looks like a decent chance Moore will clear waivers and remain in the organization as Triple-A catching depth.

    The Rays gave up a decent young OF for three hitless at bats

        Johnny Field. He was DFA in order to great room for Moore. Now they are both gone

      Field’s already 26 years old and has a 71 wRC+ this year. It’s hard to say he’s much of a loss.

    Field wasn’t good lol but yeah Adam Moore is a good athlete for his size and age and had a great arm but not much upside cause he’s a decent not good framer and can’t hit. Tons of guys like him.

    Looks like the Moore move was to give the team depth till the M. Andriese trade was finalized.
