Rays announce ALCS roster, Game 1 Lineup

The Rays have added LHP José Alvarado and LHP Josh Fleming to the ALCS roster, bringing a high leverage reliever back from the injured list and a potential starter for Game 5.

From the most recent ALDS roster, OF Brett Phillips and RHP Trevor Richards did not make the ALCS roster, but remain in the 60-man postseason eligible player pool.

As discussed on the podcast this morning, the Rays were likely to remove an outfielder for this series due to the seven game schedule with no off days.

To make room for Alvarado on the 40-man roster, RHP Oliver Drake has been designated for assignment.
