Jake Fraley - DFA'd by Rays Tampa Bay designated Fraley for assignment Sunday.

Impact After just recently after being reinstated from the 60-day IL earlier this week, Fraley was DFA'd. With Victor Mesa becoming the Rays' everyday right fielder in Fraley's absence, the 31-year-old was unable to regain playing time. The Rays made the move in order to create room for Ben Williamson (hamstring) to return from the IL.

Bryan Baker - Bags another win Saturday Baker (4-2) picked up the win in Saturday's 2-1 victory over the Red Sox, giving up two hits in a scoreless ninth inning. He didn't walk or strike out a batter.

Impact The right-hander still leads the majors with 40 saves, but Baker has been the pitcher of record during the Rays' recent spate of walk-off victories as well -- three of his four wins on the season have come in his last four appearances. Through 60.1 innings, Baker's delivered a 1.49 ERA, 0.91 WHIP and 62:21 K:BB in a breakout campaign.

Freddy Peralta - Sharp in Saturday's no-decision Peralta didn't factor into the decision in Saturday's 2-1 win over the Red Sox, allowing one run on four hits and two walks over 5.2 innings. He struck out six.

Impact The former Brewer and Met fell just short of his ninth quality start of the season, getting lifted after 97 pitches (59 strikes), and Peralta continues to turn his season around since joining the Rays and making some mechanical tweaks to his delivery. Over his last five starts, he's produced a 0.94 ERA, 0.70 WHIP and 23:6 K:BB in 28.2 innings while going 4-0. Peralta is set to make his final start of the regular season on the road next weekend in Philadelphia.
