Ty Johnson was promoted from Triple-A Durham after Cleavinger went on the 15-day injured list with forearm tightness, and Oliver Dunn was designated for assignment.
- On Saturday, the Tampa Bay Rays placed left-handed reliever Garrett Cleavinger on the 15-day injured list, promoting right-handed pitcher Ty Johnson from Triple-A Durham to replace him.

- Johnson, a native of Rockwall, Texas, joins the major league roster after posting a 4-1 record and 3.03 ERA across 21 games, including 10 starts, with Durham.
- To accommodate the rookie on the 40-man roster, infielder Oliver Dunn was designated for assignment, providing the team necessary flexibility during the final stretch.
- With only three weeks remaining in the regular season, the Rays face continued pitching depth challenges, having failed to field their projected staff for a single game this year.
