Taj Bradley

Taj Bradley took the mound against the Yankees, allowing just one earned run on four hits and two walks while striking out seven over six innings in Friday's 2-0 loss.

Fantasy Impact

Despite delivering a strong performance, Bradley's efforts were not enough to secure a win, as the Rays' offense failed to provide run support. This outing, characterized by high strikeout numbers and efficient control, should reassure fantasy managers about Bradley's potential despite his lack of wins. His solid ERA of 1.50 and WHIP of 1.00, coupled with a promising 10.5 K/9 rate, indicate that Bradley could be a valuable asset in fantasy leagues, especially if the Rays' lineup can start generating more runs in his starts.

Taj Bradley (pectoral) is expected to return from the IL for this weekend's series vs the Yankees.

Fantasy Impact

Bradley will take Ryan Pepiot's (leg) spot in the rotation after he is placed on the IL. Pepiot was slated to start on Saturday, so that will likely be when Bradley takes the mound for the Rays. He built up to 94 pitches in his latest rehab start, so there shouldn't be any limitations going forward.

Taj Bradley (pectoral) is likely to be activated this week.

Fantasy Impact

Bradley has not pitched for the Rays this season due to a right pectoral strain. He has rejoined the Rays all is expected to make his season debut later this week.

Taj Bradley (pectoral) is set to begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Durham soon.

Fantasy Impact

Bradley was able to get through his most recent outing without any setbacks. Fantasy managers should expect Bradley to need multiple rehab starts before being activated.

Taj Bradley is expected to return early in May.

Fantasy Impact

Bradley recently threw a bullpen session, but he does not appear to be close to returning. He is targeting a return in about one month.
