Ê Batting .229/.260/.292 (11-for-48) with 6 RBI in 13 games (all starts) since returning from the 15-day DL (left hip strain), incl. 4 multi-hit games. Ê Yesterday at COL had a pair of run-scoring hits (both singles), his first multi-RBI game since June 4 at MIN (3) and sixth multi-RBI game this year. Ê Snapped an 0-for-17 skid on Sat vs. BAL (2nd-inn. single)…reached base safely 3 times (single, single, walk), his most since May 31 at KC (4). Ê Has played in 70 games, all starts (64-RF, 4-DH, 2-CF)…has struck out in 34.4 percent of PA, 3rd in the majors…his 97 SO rank T-7th in the AL. Ê Hasn’t homered since June 4 at MIN (pre- DL stint)…hasn’t homered at Tropicana Field since May 4 vs. LAD (off Alex Wood)…his last 4 HR and 6 of

RAYS BULLPEN NOTES#35 MATT ANDRIESE, RH Last App: 7/19 at COL (S, 3.0-IP, 3-H, 1-R, 0-BB, 3-SO, 1-HR) Saves-Opps: 1-1 vs. LH: .202 (19-94), 1-HR2016: 6-2-1, 2.78 ERA, 16 G, 8 GS Long Relief App: 3.0, 3x-last 7/19 at COL IR-RS: 4-1 vs. RH: .248 (38-153), 2-HR

Ê Recorded his third career save on Tue at COL, all of them having been of the 3 IP (or more) variety—most in club history (last May 14, 2015 vs. NYY)…he has the last 3 such saves recorded by the Rays, though this was their first on the road since Jake Odorizzi on Sep 24, 2013 at NYY.

Ê Only run allowed was a 9th-inning solo homer to Trevor Story, his third in 68.0 IP this year…min. 50 IP, his 0.40 HR/9 IP ratio ranks 4th in the AL. Ê Both his losses have come over his 8 relief apps but has a 2.41 ERA (18.2-IP, 5-ER) in relief this year, compared to a 4.75 ERA in relief last year. Ê Has recorded at least 5 outs in his last 6 relief apps…his last 3 relief apps have been 3.0, 2.2 and 3.0 IP and yielded a combined one run in them. Ê Became the fifth Ray to ever start a season at 6-0 or better and remains one of six major league pitchers to do that this season.

#31 XAVIER CEDEÑO, LH Last App: 7/15 vs. BAL (0.2-IP, 0-H, 0-R, 0-BB, 0-SO) Saves-Opps: 0-4 vs. LH: .208 (11-53)2016: 3-2-0, 3.99 ERA, 36 G Long Relief App: 1.1, 5x-last 7/2 vs. DET IR-RS: 17-6 vs. RH: .271 (16-59), 1-HR

Ê Lefties are 5-for-their-last-11 vs. him (since June 19), compared to .143 before that…retired both BF on Fri vs. BAL (Chris Davis, Mark Trumbo). Ê Ranks 2nd on the team with 36 apps…the Rays have been tied or ahead in 29 of his 36 apps…has only yielded multiple runs in two of 36 apps. Ê Has yielded run(s) in 3 of his last 6 apps as well as in 4 of his last 8 apps since June 19, pitching to a 9.00 ERA (6-IP, 6-ER) over that stretch. Ê Has thrown 10 pitches or fewer in 15 of his 36 apps…has pitched less than one inning in each of his last 3 apps (since July 3 vs. DET). Ê Has a 6.33 SO/BB ratio in his last 22 apps since May 21 (19-SO, 3-BB)…in comparison, had a 1.67 SO/BB ratio through his first 14 apps.

#37 ALEX COLOME, RH Last App: 7/17 vs. BAL (S, 1.0-IP, 1-H, 0-R, 0-BB, 3-SO) Saves-Opps: 20-20 vs. LH: .261 (12-46), 1-HR2016: 1-2-20, 1.64 ERA, 32 G Long Relief App: 2.0, 3x-last 5/24 at MIA IR-RS: 11-5 vs. RH: .178 (13-73), 1-HR

Ê Had a season-high-tying 3 SO on Sun vs. BAL (4th time, last June 3 at MIN) to record his first save since June 14 vs. SEA…despite going over a month in between saves, he ranks T-5th in the AL with 20 saves and he hasn’t allowed a run in those chances (20.2-IP, 11-H, 0-R, 7-BB, 30-SO).

Ê Holds the club record for most successful save opportunities to start a season (prev. 16, 2x-last Rafael Soriano in 2010)…is their longest streak without a blown save (at any point of the season) since Fernando Rodney converted a club-record 22 straight from May 27–Aug 13, 2012.

Ê Only two pitchers in the majors have recorded as many saves without a blown save: NYM Jeurys Familia (33) and BAL Zach Britton (29). Ê Did not pitch in the All-Star Game following his selection by Royals Manager Ned Yost…was the first selection of his career and he was the seventh

reliever in club history to make the All-Star Team…became the first product of a Rays international academy to make it.

#49 DYLAN FLORO, RH Last App: 7/20 at COL (1.0-IP, 1-H, 0-R, 0-BB, 1-SO) Saves-Opps: -- vs. LH: .300 (3-10)2016: 0-0-0, 3.68 ERA, 5 G Long Relief App: 2.0, 2x-last 7/18 at COL IR-RS: 3-2 vs. RH: .316 (6-19)

Ê Had a scoreless 7th yesterday at COL, pitching around a leadoff single and 1-out wild pitch…all 5 of his apps this year have been at least 1 IP. Ê Has allowed three runs in 7.1 IP, two of them on Mon at COL after an overturned replay review…made his major league debut on July 7 vs. LAA. Ê Went 1-2-7 with a 2.81 ERA (48-IP, 15-ER) over his 30 apps with the Bulls and was named to the International League All-Star Team. Ê Was drafted by the Rays twice, in the 20th round out of high school in 2009 (did not sign) and the 13th round out of Cal State Fullerton in 2012. Ê Went 36-30 with a 3.30 ERA (526.1-IP, 193-ER) in 124 games (73 starts) in the minors…converted to full-time relief work this season.

#40 KEVIN JEPSEN, RH Last App: 7/20 at COL (1.0-IP, 2-H, 1-R, 0-BB, 2-SO) Saves-Opps: 7-11 vs. LH: .373 (19-51), 4-HR2016: 2-5-7, 6.00 ERA, 36 G Long Relief App: 1.2, 6/10 vs. BOS IR-RS: 8-3 vs. RH: .294 (25-85), 3-HR

Ê Yieled a 2-out RBI single yesterday at COL to Daniel Descalso (8th inn.), his first hits (2) and run allowed since signing with the Rays (3rd app). Ê Is the fourth pitcher to have two separate stints with the Rays, returning after pitching for another organization in between…he joins Dan Wheeler,

Trever Miller and Grant Balfour…signed with the Rays on July 15; was designated for assignment by the Twins on July 3 (released on July 13). Ê Went 2-5 with a 6.16 ERA (30.2-IP, 21-ER) and 7 saves in his 33 apps for the Twins this season…started this season in the Twins closing role. 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.

#30 ERASMO RAMIREZ, RH Last App: 7/17 vs. BAL (2.0-IP, 0-H, 0-R, 0-BB, 4-SO) Saves-Opps: 0-4 vs. LH: .286 (22-77), 5-HR2016: 7-7-0, 3.97 ERA, 37 G, 1 GS Long Relief App: 2.2, 5/18 at TOR IR-RS: 24-5 vs. RH: .267 (36-135), 3-HR

Ê Had a season-high-tying 4 SO on Sun vs. BAL (3rd time, last his only start on April 16 vs. CWS)…retired all 6 batters faced (7th-8th innings), his longest app since June 8 at ARI (2 IP)…has made 4 straight scoreless apps since the start of July (after a 7.77 ERA from May 11–June 30).

Ê Has made a major-league-most 23 relief apps of 4 outs or more, and his 13 relief apps of at least 2 IP rank T-1st in the majors with SD Carlos Vil-lanueva and SEA Mike Montgomery (13)—the pitcher he was traded for…his 51.0 relief innings rank 2nd in the AL to BAL Brad Brach (51.1).

Ê His 6 wins rank T-2nd among major league relievers (won his only start), one shy of the club record for a reliever (7x-last J.P. Howell, 2009). Ê Has yielded 8 HR, T-3rd among AL relievers…his 7 losses lead ML relievers and were the club record for a reliever before the All-Star break.

#45 ENNY ROMERO, LH Last App: 7/20 at COL (1.0-IP, 1-H, 0-R, 1-BB, 1-SO) Saves-Opps: 0-1 vs. LH: .271 (13-48), 1-HR2016: 1-0-0, 5.58 ERA, 34 G Long Relief App: 2.0, 4x-last 6/17 vs. SF IR-RS: 20-6 vs. RH: .246 (17-69), 4-HR

Ê His last 4 apps spanning 2.2 IP have been scoreless since yielding 3-run homers in consecutive apps on July 1 vs. DET and July 5 vs. LAA. Ê Yielded a pair of baserunners but no runs yesterday vs. COL in the 9th…pitched around a leadoff single and 1-out walk to finish off an 11-3 win. Ê Has pitched to an 1.86 ERA (19.1-IP, 4-ER) in 18 apps on the road compared to a 11.91 ERA (11.1-IP, 15-ER) in 16 apps at Tropicana Field. Ê Has a 9.00 ERA (14-IP, 23-H, 14-ER, 11-BB, 18-SO) over his last 17 apps (since May 24), compared to a 2.70 ERA (16.2-IP, 5-ER) prior to that. Ê His 18 BB rank T-6th among AL relievers…included in his 18 BB are 10 BB vs. lefty batters and three bases-loaded walks (last June 6 at ARI).
