TAMPA, Fla. — The Tampa Bay Rays have traded right-handed pitcher Zach Eflin to the Baltimore Orioles, according to multiple sources, including Jeff Passan of ESPN.
In 2022, the Rays signed Zach Eflin to the largest contract given to a free agent in Tampa Bay Rays history. Eflin is 5-7 this season, with a 4.09 ERA and 87 strikeouts.
This is the second trade for the Rays today, already trading outfielder Randy Arozearena to the Seattle Mariners.
At 52-51 and 9 1/2 games back in the AL East race, the Rays are in sell-mode as they approach the trade deadline on July 31.
This is also the second trade of the day for the AL East-leading Orioles, after trading for RHP Seranthony Dominguez from the Phillies.
According to ESPN's Passan, the Rays received three players in return from the Baltimore Orioles.
Brides, families fighting for refunds after event venue closes suddenly
“We’ve struggled so hard to scrape the money to be able to do this for her,” Irizarry said. “She’s my only girl and I wanted this so much for her.”
Couples and families who had weddings and events planned at a well-known venue that abruptly closed claim they’re out thousands of dollars and aren’t being given refunds. Annette Irizarry was supposed to hold her 15-year-old daughter’s quinceañera in August at the Clearwater location and said she’s now out the $6,160 she paid. Without that money, Irizarry said she can’t afford to have her daughter’s celebration somewhere else.
