US EditionTampa Bay Rays Demote Pitcher Taj Bradley to Triple-A
HILLSBOROUGH COUNTY, FLORIDA, JUL 24 – Taj Bradley was optioned to Triple-A Durham following inconsistent pitching and a rough start that contributed to the Rays' blown multi-run leads and 11-9 loss to the White Sox.
- On Wednesday night, the Tampa Bay Rays optioned pitcher Taj Bradley to Triple-A Durham after a poor start against the Chicago White Sox in Tampa, Florida.
- The demotion followed Bradley's inconsistency in 2025, including multiple outings with five or more runs allowed and a season ERA rising to 4.61.
- Bradley gave up four runs early in the White Sox game, failing to get through the second inning despite a 4-0 lead, while the Rays struggled with a 3-3 homestand.
- Manager Kevin Cash said, "It's best for him to get down there right now" and described Bradley as "massive to our success" needing to regain his form.
- The move suggests the Rays aim to stabilize Bradley's performance as they pursue playoff contention during a challenging stretch of mostly road games.
