Aaron Slegers

Tampa Bay seems to have a love-hate relationship with the 6-foot-10 Slegers. After acquiring him via trade with the Twins in March of 2019, the Rays designated him for assignment a couple months later. Slegers was then added back to the Rays' roster in August of 2019 before being designated for assignment a second time that September. Despite all that, he re-signed with the Rays on a minor-league deal with an invitation to spring training, ultimately getting called up Aug. 12. Slegers continued to bounce between the majors and the alternate site but eventually settled in and pitched well, posting a 2.81 ERA in 16 September innings. Slegers even took the ball three times in the postseason, although he was left off the World Series roster. At press time, Slegers remains on the Rays' 40-man roster. A lot of the horses in front of him would need to go down for Slegers to lead the stable.
