In 2014, the Rays traded Matt Joyce who had spent the past six seasons with the Rays and even had an all-star campaign in 2011 to the Los Angeles Angels for relief pitcher, Kevin Jepsen. During Joyce's time with Tampa Bay, he served as the left handed side of a platoon in right field, while displaying some excellent numbers during the month of May.

The Rays are the clear winners of this trade as Matt Joyce posted negative WAR for the Angels then became a free agent following the year.
