Hopefully this isn't a 1 day visit. And scratch what I said about Boyle replacing Littell...it'll be Houser. Joe finishes the final 3 innings and does fantastic - 3 IP, 2 H, 5 K, 0 BB Retired 3 former MVPs (2 K's) - Goldschmidt, Bellinger, Stanton.

I actually am glad to see them lean into the reliever role for him. As a primarily Sinker/Slider pitcher, the bullpen is probably where he can find long term success in the bigs.

Hope he gets in a few games.

Has made 3 appearances in relief for the Rays. Has a 2.35 ERA and in 7 2/3 IP he has struck out 11 and given up 7 hits. A nice showing for Joe.

This time was just one outing, Wednesday against the White Sox. 2 2/3 IP, 2 BB, 2 K, 1 H, 0 R. I am really surprised he was sent back down especially with the expanded September roster.

However, he did not make the club and has been back at AAA Durham. Not a great start to the season, getting shelled for 4 runs on opening day. Not sure if there was an injury but he went 2 full weeks between his 3rd and 4th appearances. ERA is at 13.50 and has 7 walks in just 3.1 innings. He is now 25. Definitely seems like he is done as a starter and is just a matter of getting it done in relief enough at Durham to be considered when the Rays need an arm.

He did not make an appearance for Tampa.
