Jeffrey Springs Gives Up Four Earned Runs In Latest Rehab Start
4 months agoTampa Bay Rays left-hander Jeffrey Springs (elbow) allowed five runs (four earned) on eight hits while walking one and striking out three in 4 2/3 innings in his latest minor-league rehab start with Triple-A Durham on Sunday. The 31-year-old southpaw threw 77 pitches (51 strikes) in the outing and now has a 4.09 ERA and 1.23 WHIP with 24 strikeouts and only two walks in 22 innings over his seven starts for the Bulls. It's unclear what might be next for Springs, but it's quite possible that he'll rejoin the Rays' starting rotation for the second half of the season after having Tommy John surgery in April of last year. The former 30th-round selection of the Texas Rangers in 2015 out of Appalachian State went 9-5 with a 2.46 ERA and 1.07 WHIP with a 144:31 K:BB in 135 1/3 innings in 2022 and is worth picking up off the waiver wire now in mixed leagues if he's available.
