Rays designated RHP Connor Seabold for assignment.
The Rays needed to free up a spot on their 40-man roster on Friday for the promotion of Tristan Peters and it looks like Seabold drew the short straw this time around. The 29-year-old hurler has pitched well in three appearances with the Rays this season, posting a 1.35 ERA, 1.50 WHIP and a 5/3 K/BB ratio over 6 2/3 innings. He could attract some interest on waivers from a team in need of bullpen depth.
