Raley had signed a two year deal (with an option for a third year) with the Rays as a free agent in November of last year. During his lone season with Tampa Bay, Raley appeared in 60 games and compiled a 2.68 ERA & 2.74 FIP over 53 2⁄3 innings pitched. He was slated to make $4.5M in 2023, then whichever team he is on as the option to keep him for $6.
