The state of the Rays starting rotation
Photo by Vaughn Ridley/Getty ImagesThe Tampa Bay Rays have only three losses on the season, which is fantastic three weeks in. Usually teams that have great success are also lucky in the injury department, but that hasn’t been the case for the Rays. The team’s three top defenders — UTIL Taylor Walls, CF Jose Siri, and SS Wander Franco — have all missed time for various strains and ailments. But those losses are minor compared to what has happened to the starting rotation.
The Rays entered Spring Training with a formidable starting five:
RHP Tyler Glasnow
LHP Shane McClanahan
RHP Zach Eflin
LHP Jeffrey Springs
RHP Drew Rasmussen
