The Rays made a fairly quiet but extremely Rays-y move yesterday, claiming RHP Jimmy Yacabonis off waivers from the Miami Marlins.
Yacabonis has bounced around the league in his first 5 years in the majors. There’s good reasons for that. His stuff is incredible and eye-popping and every team is gonna believe “we can fix this”. He is available to be fixed because his command is still very poor and finds an awful lot of barrels.
The Rays just acquired RP Jimmy Yacabonis and he could be the next TB stud with his plus slider and above average sinker.
