Rays Set Wild Card Series Roster

By Mark Polishuk | September 29, 2020 at 2:09pm CDT

The Rays have announced their 28-man roster for their wild card series with the Blue Jays, beginning today at Tropicana Field.  Blake Snell will start Game 1, while Tyler Glasnow and Charlie Morton are scheduled to start the next two games (in Morton’s case, if a Game 3 if necessary).

The surprise move was the selection of prospect Shane McClanahan, whose first Major League game could come under the bright lights of the postseason.  The Rays and Blue Jays are frequent opponents in the AL East, and the hard-throwing McClanahan represents a totally fresh weapon for the Rays to wield against Toronto hitters.

Yandy Diaz and Ji-Man Choi are both back from hamstring strains, as Diaz will see his first action since August 31 and Choi back for the first time since September 12.  These returns add a potent lefty-righty combination to the Rays’ corner infield mix, though neither Diaz or Choi are starting in Game 1.

    Everyone there are deserving. Sad Sherriff, K Smith, Alvarado and Meadows didn’t make cut but hope to see them later in playoffs. Lets dominate Tampa! Lightning and now the Rays!

      I am so glad that Aaron Loup is pitching so well this season. He has always been a good reliever. Go Rays.

          Please do yourself a favor and look at the stats when he was pitching in Toronto. You will probably be surprised. In his first year with the Jays he had an era of 2.64, the next year 2.47 and the following year 3.15. The question is did you at least watch one game when he was pitching?

      wait, how did Phillips make it over Meadows?

        Meadows is in the injured list. He is still not ready to play yet.

    Jays have a hard task ahead of them but I believe it can be done! And yes it’s 2020…. anything can happen.

    Would love to see Tampa win one. Them or Cleveland are my two preferences out of the AL.
