TOMORROW’S STARTER—LH BLAKE SNELL (3-5, 3.18) Ê LAST START—On Wed at TOR, went 1.2 IP, the shortest start by

a Ray since Cesar Ramos on May 17, 2014 at LAA (1.1 IP)…his 58 pitches were the most by a Ray in a start of less than 2 IP since Matt Garza on June 18, 2010 at FLA (71)…allowed a season-high-tying 5 runs (also June 16 vs. SEA) and a season-high-tying 4 BB, including 3 consecutive walks to his last 3 BF…yielded a 3-run homer to Troy Tulowitzki in the 1st (all unearned) and an RBI single to Devon Travis and bases-loaded walk to Tulowitzki in the 2nd, his last batter…his line: L, 1.2 IP, 5 H, 5 R, 2 ER, 4 BB, 2 SO, 1 HR, 68 pit, 37 str.

Ê Is seeking a fifth straight quality start, which would tie the lon-gest streak of his career (also April 17–May 9, 2012, with DET).

Ê Over his last 4 starts, hasn’t allowed runs in more than a single inning: a 1-run 1st on July 23 at OAK, a 2-run 3rd on July 30 vs. NYY, a 2-run 4th on Aug 4 vs. KC and a 2-run 5th on Tue at TOR.

Ê INTERLEAGUE—Will be making his fouth interleague start of the season and seventh of his career…is 0-2 with a 6.75 ERA (16-IP, 12-ER) this season (vs. LAD, vs. MIA, at COL)…has gone 1-3 with a 4.62 ERA (39-IP, 20-ER) in 13 career IL apps (6 starts)…lone interleague win was Sep 30, 2015 vs. MIA (6-IP, 3-H, 1-R/ER).

Ê THE LONG BALL—Has yielded a career-high 23 HR, T-7th-most in the AL…since 2015, has yielded 34 HR in 197 IP (1.55 HR/9 IP) and 55 of his 103 runs allowed (53.4 percent) have scored via the home run—39 of 79 (49.4 pct.) this season and 16 of 24 (66.7 pct.) a season ago.

Ê His 6 HR allowed to left-handed hitters are a career-high and the most by a LHP in the majors…didn’t allow one to a lefty in 2015.

Ê Seven times this season he’s yielded multiple homers…only NYY Nathan Eovaldi (8) and SD/CWS James Shields (8) have done that more often.

Ê STRIKEOUTS—Ranks 9th in the AL at 8.98 SO/9 IP…this is down from 10.09 SO/9 IP through 16 starts, as he’s combined for only 22 SO over his last 6 starts spanning 34 IP…only got 4 swings-and-misses in his last start on Tue at TOR and 3 of them came in the 6th inning.

Ê Has a career-high 4 double-digit strikeout games (last Aug 4 vs. KC)…only three AL pitchers have done it more: BOS David Price (7), DET Justin Verlander (5) and TB Chris Archer (5).

Ê Has reached double-digit strikeouts in 7 of his 41 starts with the Rays, compared to twice in 36 career starts with Detroit.

Ê WINS & LOSSES—His 11 losses are a career-high and T-5th in the AL…prior to this season, only had 15 losses in 126 career apps (55 starts)…earlier this season, had a career-long 7-game losing streak spanning 11 starts…is trying to win 3 consecutive decisions for the first time since Aug 21–Sep 30, 2015 (5 straight wins spanning 8 starts).

Ê THE BIG INNING—Ten times this season he has allowed at least 3 runs in a single inning…in comparison, he only did it 7 times in 395 ca-reer innings prior to this year…only six AL pitchers have done it more often this season.

Ê FIRST HALF WRAP—Smyly and RH Chris Archer became the sec-ond pair of teammates in major league history to record 100 strikeouts and 10 losses before the All-Star break…joined RH Clay Kirby (6-11, 126-SO) and RH Steve Arlin (8-11, 115-SO) of the 1972 Padres.

Ê Only one other pitcher in major league history (and none in the AL) had as high an ERA (5.47) with as many strikeouts (108) at the All-Star break—COL Pedro Astacio (5.67, 109) in 1999.

Ê His 20 HR before the All-Star break tied for the most in club his-tory, along with Esteban Yan in 2000.

Ê MUCH IN COMMON—Has modeled parts of his pitching style after LH Cliff Lee, another Arkansas native and former Razorback with an assortment of pitches…the two have the same agent (Darek Brau-necker) and have worked out together in past offseasons.

Ê A scoring change made today credited him with a stolen base on Aug 9 at TOR (originally ruled runner advancement)…gives him 6 SB this year. Ê Batting .278/.328/.407 (15-for-54) with 4 2B, 1 HR and 5 RBI over his last 15 games (14 starts), compared to .118 (6-for-51) in his 14 games prior. Ê Has only homered once over his last 149 at-bats, compared to 10 HR in his first 184 at-bats of the season (18.4 AB/HR)…it came in the 1st inning

on Aug 3 vs. KC and snapped a career-long homerless drought at 109 at-bats…was also his first homer at Tropicana Field since May 4 vs. LAD. Ê Ranks T-6th in the AL with 126 SO and has struck out in 34.9 percent of his PA, the highest rate in the majors per FanGraphs (min. 300 PA).

Ê Batting .250/.308/.500 (3-for-12) with 1 HR, 2 RBI, 1 BB, 1 SAC and 3 runs scored in 4 games (all starts) since joining the Rays via waiver claim. Ê His 4 HR matches his career high (also 2010)…on Aug 6 vs. MIN, became the second player born in Pinellas County to homer for the Rays…his

Seminole HS teammate, Casey Kotchman, had 10 HR for the Rays in 2011…marked his first multi-RBI game in a Rays uniform (including 2015). Ê Was designated for assignment by Texas following their trade for Jonathan Lucroy…claimed by the Rays off waivers on Aug 4 to mark his second

stint with the club, as he made the Rays Opening Day roster in 2015 and appeared in 25 games (16 starts)…started this season with Detroit. Ê Attended Seminole HS and St. Petersburg College…with his Rays debut last season, was the 12th Tampa Bay-area native to play for the Rays.

Ê Has made 5 consecutive scoreless apps (4.2-IP, 6-H, 0-R, 2-BB, 5-SO) since his July 29 reinstatement from the 15-day DL (left oblique strain). Ê On Aug 8 at TOR inherited runners on base for the first time this season and stranded them both (Donaldson pop out, Encarnacion strikeout). Ê On Aug 4 vs. KC escaped his bases-loaded jam with consecutive strikeouts on a total of 6 pitches to end the inning (Salvador Perez, Alex Gordon)…

got his first win since June 13, 2015 vs. CWS, snapping a 7-game losing streak—one shy of the club record for a reliever (Dan Wheeler, 2007). Ê Has had two DL stints this season (Opening Day–May 30, June 1–July 28)…led the AL with 41 saves in his All-Star campaign of 2015 (selected by

Royals Manager Ned Yost)…joined Rafael Soriano (45 in 2010) as the only Rays pitchers to lead the league in saves.

Ê Pitched in a third straight game and issued a season-high-tying 2 BB on Aug 8 at TOR (also May 11 at SEA)…did not record an out, walking both batters faced on a total of 10 pitches (Michael Saunders, Troy Tulowitzki)…took the loss for the second time in his last 4 apps (also Aug 2 vs. KC).

Ê Has made 107 apps in his Rays career and only yielded 1 HR to a left-handed hitter over that span—on Aug 25, 2015 vs. MIN (Eddie Rosario). Ê Has a 7.50 ERA (12-IP, 10-ER) over his last 18 apps (since June 19 vs. SF), and his season ERA has increased from 2.70 to 4.33 over that span. Ê Is tied for the team lead with 46 apps…has been charged with 5 blown saves (last Aug 2 vs. KC) and his 4 losses are 2nd among Rays relievers.

Ê Saved 4 straight team games from July 27 at LAD–July 31 vs. NYY, third time this season doing that (also June 3-6 and May 4-8)…according to the Elias Sports Bureau, became the first pitcher to save four straight team games three times in a season since LAD Eric Gagne in 2003—the year he won the NL Cy Young Award…prior to this season, the only Ray to ever save 4 straight team games was Rafael Soriano from July 3-6, 2010.

Ê His only blown save was July 23 at OAK, snapping his club record of 21 straight saves to start the season…yielded 2 HR including a walk-off by Ryon Healy…he fell one save shy of tying Fernando Rodney’s club record for most consecutive conversions (22, May 27–Aug 13, 2012).

Ê Did not pitch in the All-Star Game following his selection by Royals Manager Ned Yost…marked the first selection of his career.

Ê Was the opposing pitcher in Alex Rodriguez’s final at-bat as a Yankee…got him to ground out to short in the 7th inn. on Aug 12 at Yankee Stadium. Ê Marks his third stint with the Rays this season (also May 25–June 16, June 21–July 14)…had a 2.67 ERA (27-IP, 8-ER) in 18 apps at Triple-A. Ê Has recorded his first career win (June 14 vs. SEA) and save (July 4 vs. LAA)…became the second player in Rays history born in Clearwater (also

Ryan Webb)…is one of three alumni of J. W. Mitchell HS in New Port Richey to reach the majors, along with Tyler Clippard and Patrick Schuster.

#40 KEVIN JEPSEN, RH Last App: 8/10 at TOR (1.0-IP, 0-H, 0-R, 0-BB, 2-SO) Saves-Opps: 7-11 vs. LH: .322 (19-59), 4-HR2016: 2-5-7, 5.12 ERA, 45 G Long Relief App: 1.2, 6/10 vs. BOS IR-RS: 15-4 vs. RH: .292 (28-96), 3-HR

Trever Miller and Grant Balfour…he signed with the Rays on July 15, two days after being released by the Twins (DFA’ed by MIN on July 3). Ê Was with the Rays for the start of the 2015 season and went 2-5 with a 2.81 ERA (41.2-IP, 13-ER) in 46 apps for them before being traded to Min-

nesota in exchange for RH Chih-Wei Hu and RH Alexis Tapia…Hu pitched for the World Team in the Futures Game this season.

Ê Both runs allowed on Sat at NYY came on a Didi Gregorius 2-out, 2-run homer in the 7th…his 12 HR are the most among AL relievers and the most by a Rays reliever since Al Reyes (13) and Gary Glover (12) in 2007…has allowed 3 HR over his last 3 apps spanning 7.2 IP (since Aug 5 vs. MIN).

Ê Leads the majors with 65.1 relief innings, 1.1 IP more than SD Brad Hand…has made a major-league-most 29 relief apps of 4 outs or more—nine more than anyone else—and a major-league-most 18 relief apps of at least 2 IP—the most by a Rays reliever since J.P. Howell in 2008 (23).

Ê Recorded his first career save on Tue at TOR, retiring all 9 BF on a total of 27 pitches…marked the fewest pitches for a 3-inning save (or longer) in club history…was the third pitcher in club history to record a save on 3 perfect innings, first since Roberto Hernandez on Sep 3, 2013 at LAA (3.2 IP).

Ê His 9 losses are the most among ML relievers and one shy of the club record for a reliever (Brad Boxberger, 10 in 2015)…his 6 wins as a reliever (also won his only start) are one shy of the club record for a reliever (last J.P. Howell, 2009).
