1 year agoThe Tampa Bay Rays released right-hander Elvin Rodriguez earlier this week. They granted him his release, so he could pursue an opportunity to pitch in Japan. The right-hander has reportedly agreed to a deal with the Yakult Swallows of Japan's Nippon Professional Baseball. The 25-year-old complied a 3.42 ERA, 1.14 WHIP and 53/19 K/BB across 11 starts in Triple-A this season. He threw 3 1/3 scoreless frames with five strikeouts in his lone relief appearance with Tampa Bay. The expectation is that Rodriguez will gain more value if he continues pitching like this overseas.--Andy Webb - RotoBaller
