Tampa Bay Rays starting pitcher Jake Faria only lasted 1 2/3 innings Sunday versus Minnesota despite the plan calling for him to go four innings. He allowed five runs, with four being earned. Observers said he labored with his tempo. There was an element of bad luck, as three hits bounced off fielder's gloves and two more fell in front of outfielders. Despite the struggles, Faria says he is still feeling good in his work outside of games and hopes it translates soon. In his 86 2/3 innings in the majors during 2017, Faria struck out 84 batters while issuing only 31 walks. Perhaps the biggest concern is that he also gave up 11 home runs in those 86 2/3 innings. Faria is slated to be the third starter for the Rays and should not cost much to draft or win in auctions.--Jamie Mellor

The Boston Red Sox signed former Tampa Bay Rays right-hander Jake Faria to a minor-league deal on Saturday, according to a source. Faria began his MLB career mostly as a starter for the Rays in 2017 and 2018, but he's mostly served as a reliever in two seasons since then. The 29-year-old didn't pitch in the majors at all in 2022 and had a 5.51 ERA (4.58 FIP), 1.59 WHIP, 13 walks and 32 strikeouts in 23 appearances (three starts) over 32 2/3 innings pitched for the Arizona Diamondbacks. Faria had a rough 7.48 ERA in 12 outings (nine starts) at Triple-A St. Paul with the Minnesota Twins in 2022. He'll give the Red Sox some starting and relieving pitching depth in 2023 but won't be on the fantasy radar at all if he's in the big leagues.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
