Bryan Baker - Dominance continues in 22nd save Baker secured the save Thursday against the Royals, striking out one in a clean ninth inning.

Impact Baker continues to run away with Tampa Bay's closing gig. The 31-year-old right-hander has yielded just one run since May 17, a stretch of 15 outings, and he last blew a save back on May 13. His 22 saves trail only Cade Smith's 26 for the major-league lead, and Baker boasts a 1.89 ERA, 0.84 WHIP and 36:11 K:BB over 33.1 innings.

Ian Seymour - Dominates in fifth win Seymour (5-1) earned the win Thursday against the Royals, allowing one run on three hits and one walk in six innings. He struck out eight.

Impact That's now back-to-back quality starts for Seymour, who has excelled over his past five outings (three starts) while getting stretched out. During that span, the 27-year-old southpaw has a 2.52 ERA, 0.76 WHIP and 27:6 K:BB covering 25 innings. Seymour, who holds a 4.02 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 60:21 K:BB over 56 innings on the year, is pushing for a permanent stay in the Rays' rotation, but a tough assignment against the Yankees awaits him for his next start.

Jesse Scholtens - Throwing again, timeline TBD Scholtens (wrist) completed a 20-pitch bullpen session June 8 but is without a clear target date for a return, MLB.com reports.

Impact The Rays haven't indicated that Scholtens suffered a setback following that bullpen session, but the lack of recent updates on his status likely suggests that his return from the 15-day injured list isn't imminent. Scholtens posted a 3.82 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and 30:11 K:BB in 37.2 innings over nine appearances (two starts) for Tampa Bay before hitting the shelf May 26 due to a right wrist strain.

Austin Overn - Back in action for Double-A club Overn (undisclosed) has gone 4-for-9 with a home run, a double, three walks, two stolen bases, three RBI and two runs in two games for Double-A Montgomery since being reinstated fr...

Impact After spending just over a month on the shelf due to the unspecified issue, Overn has hit the ground running since rejoining the Montgomery lineup. Acquired from the Orioles over the winter as part of the prospect haul the Rays received in the deal that sent right-hander Shane Baz to Baltimore, Overn has enjoyed an outstanding first season in the organization. Through 40 games with Montgomery, Overn is slashing .317/.385/.553 with eight home runs and 30 steals.

Cedric Mullins - Surging in power department Mullins went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and an additional RBI in Wednesday's 4-0 win over the Royals.

Impact Mullins is on a power surge, going yard three times in his past four outings. The 31-year-old center fielder is also riding a decent six-game hitting streak, but he still has plenty of work to do to enhance his season numbers. Through 281 plate appearances, Mullins is slashing .212/.291/.347 with nine homers, 27 RBI, 13 stolen bases and 29 runs scored.

Kevin Kelly - Grabs fourth save Kelly earned the save in Wednesday's 4-0 win over the Royals, allowing one hit over 1.1 scoreless innings.

Impact Kelly entered the game with two outs in the eighth inning, where he'd induce a ground out off the bat of Bobby Witt to strand runners on first and second. The right-hander came back out for the ninth and worked around a leadoff single to earn his fourth save of the year. Kelly has been solid overall this season, typically working in a set-up role ahead of Bryan Baker, posting a 2.42 ERA with a 0.92 WHIP and 30:7 K:BB across 39.1 innings.

Rays SP Shane McClanahan providing pitching need as Junior Caminero displays power again | Sporting News As Tampa Bay received a standout pitching performance, the AL East leaders benefited from the young slugger's sixth homer in a row.

1 DAY AGO • SPORTINGNEWS.COM

Shane McClanahan - Notches seventh win McClanahan (7-5) earned the win Wednesday over the Royals, allowing three hits and no walks over six scoreless innings. He struck out four.

Impact McClanahan certainly appeared to benefit from the extra rest he got after Tampa Bay elected to skip his last turn in the rotation. The southpaw was excellent, as he blanked Kansas City to earn his first win since May 31. McClanahan turned the page on a rough month of June, where he went 0-3 with a 5.79 ERA across four starts (18.2 innings). His ERA now sits at 3.05 through 16 starts (79.2 innings) this season with a 1.17 WHIP and 77:28 K:BB. McClanahan is tentatively lined up to face the Yankees at home his next time out.
