Top Jalen Beeks News

  • Rockies' Jalen Beeks: Agrees to deal with Colorado

    Beeks signed a one-year, $1.675 million contract with the Rockies on Friday, avoiding arbitration, Jon Heyman of the New York Post reports.

    Beeks was claimed off waivers from the Rays earlier this month and is now locked into a guaranteed salary for the 2024 season. The 30-year-old left-hander holds a career 4.38 ERA with 274 strikeouts in 277.2 major-league innings and seems likely to operate in a swingman role with his new club.

  • Rockies' Jalen Beeks: Lands in Colorado

    The Rockies claimed Beeks off waivers from the Rays on Monday.

    Though a Tampa Bay organization overflowing with capable relief arms didn't have room for him on its 40-man roster, Beeks could have more staying power with the Rockies, whose relievers ranked last in baseball with a 5.41 ERA in 2023. The 30-year-old southpaw turned in a bloated 5.95 ERA of his own in 42.1 innings in the majors this past season, but most of his underlying statistics painted a more encouraging picture of his performance (3.58 xERA, 4.26 SIERA, 13.5 K-BB%).

  • Rays' Jalen Beeks: Cast off 40-man roster

    The Rays placed Beeks on outright waivers Saturday, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

    Beeks made numerous trips between Triple-A Durham and Tampa Bay over the course of the season, recording a 5.95 ERA and 1.49 WHIP across 42.1 major-league innings. With a career 4.38 ERA, Beeks could draw some interest on the waiver wire.

  • Rays' Jalen Beeks: Optioned to Triple-A

    Beeks was optioned to Triple-A Durham on Thursday, Tricia Whitaker of Bally Sports Sun reports.

    The left-hander's demotion makes room for the return of Jason Adam from the injured list. Beeks threw 40 pitches over two scoreless relief innings in Wednesday's loss to the Angels, so he probably wasn't going to be available for a day or two anyway.

  • Rays' Jalen Beeks: Rejoins big club

    Beeks was recalled from Triple-A Durham on Monday, Tricia Whitaker of Bally Sports Sun reports.

    Beeks was excellent for the Rays in 2022 but has gone back and forth between the majors and minors in 2023 while posting a 6.25 ERA with the big club. The left-hander will give Tampa Bay another bullpen arm who can cover multiple innings, though he's unlikely to see much usage in high-leverage spots.

  • Rays' Jalen Beeks: Optioned to Triple-A

    The Rays optioned Beeks to Triple-A Durham on Saturday, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

    Beeks pitched a shutout inning in his lone appearance during his latest stint in the majors, and he'll now head back to Triple-A. Chris Devenski was activated from the bereavement list in a corresponding move.

  • Rays' Jalen Beeks: Returns to majors

    The Rays recalled Beeks from Triple-A Durham on Saturday, Tricia Whitaker of Bally Sports Sun reports.

    Beeks has thrown 39.1 innings at the major-league level this season, with his 6.41 ERA more than doubling his 2.80 mark from last season. His ERA in 17.2 frames for Durham sits at 5.60. Reliever Trevor Kelley was optioned to Durham in a corresponding move.

  • Rays' Jalen Beeks: Sent down to Triple-A

    Beeks was optioned to Triple-A Durham on Thursday, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

    Beeks opened a bullpen game for the Rays in Wednesday's loss to the Cardinals, yielding two runs over two innings of work. He's being sent out in favor of a fresh arm.

  • Rays' Jalen Beeks: Draws start for bullpen game

    Beeks will serve as the Rays' opening pitcher for Wednesday's game against the Cardinals, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

    Wednesday will mark the eighth start of the season for Beeks, who holds a 6.27 ERA and 1.47 WHIP through 37.1 frames on the season. The Rays are already planning on Wednesday's contest being a bullpen game, so Beeks will likely remain in the contest only for an inning or two.

  • Rays' Jalen Beeks: Rejoins big club

    The Rays recalled Beeks from Triple-A Durham on Sunday.

    Beeks will provide Tampa Bay with a much-needed fresh arm in relief while the Rays likely treat Sunday's series finale in Detroit as a bullpen day with right-hander Erasmo Ramirez making a spot start in place of the injured Tyler Glasnow (back). Over his 27 appearances with Tampa Bay this season, Beeks has posted a 6.27 ERA and 1.47 WHIP across 37.1 innings.

    Beeks was optioned to Triple-A Durham on Wednesday, Tricia Whitaker of Bally Sports Sun reports.

    Beeks allowed four runs over 3.1 innings covering two appearances during his most recent stint in the big leagues. He's being sent out in favor of Luis Patino.

  • Rays' Jalen Beeks: Recalled from Triple-A

    The Rays recalled Beeks from Triple-A Durham on Saturday, Tricia Whitaker of Bally Sports Sun reports.

    With Shane McClanahan (back) landing on the injured list Saturday, Beeks will be called upon to replace McClanahan on the Rays' pitching staff. Beeks has made seven starts this year -- though most of his work has come out of the bullpen -- and holds a 5.82 ERA and 1.44 WHIP through 34 innings.

  • Rays' Jalen Beeks: Dispatched to minors

    The Rays optioned Beeks to Triple-A Durham on Wednesday.

    Beeks will cede his spot in the bullpen and on the 26-man active roster to right-hander Zack Littell (shoulder), who was reinstated from the 15-day injured list in a corresponding move. The demotion comes after Beeks was lit up for eight earned runs on 10 hits and four walks over 5.2 innings across his last four appearances for the Rays.

  • Rays' Jalen Beeks: Slated to open Tuesday's game

    Beeks is listed as the Rays' opening pitcher for Tuesday's game against the Athletics.

    Though the team hasn't confirmed as much, Yonny Chirinos is likely to operate as a bulk reliever behind Beeks, who will be making his seventh start of the season. In his previous six starts, Beeks has covered between 1.2 and three innings on each occasion while pitching to a cumulative 2.13 ERA and 1.03 WHIP.

  • Rays' Jalen Beeks: Earns first save

    Beeks picked up the save in Wednesday's 4-3 win over the Cubs, striking out one in two-thirds of an inning.

    Beeks entered the game with the bases loaded and one out in the ninth, striking out Miles Mastrobuoni before coaxing a flyout from Yan Gomes to end the game. It's the first save of the year for Beeks, who's pitched to a 1.74 ERA over his last seven outings (10.1 innings) while striking out 14 in that span. The 29-year-old left-hander lowered his ERA to 4.45 with a 1.24 WHIP and 27:14 K:BB through 28.1 innings this season. Beeks could continue to have a higher-leverage role while Pete Fairbanks (hip) is sidelined, though Jason Adam is still most likely the preferred ninth-inning option.

  • Rays' Jalen Beeks: Opening Friday

    Beeks will serve as the Rays' opener ahead of primary pitcher Cooper Criswell against the Dodgers on Friday, Ryan Bass of Bally Sports Sun reports.

    Friday will mark Beeks' sixth start of the season and his first appearance since Sunday against the Brewers. He has a 0.96 ERA and 0.75 WHIP across his last six appearances but hasn't pitched more than two innings in a game since April.

  • Rays' Jalen Beeks: Working as opener Sunday

    Beeks will be the opener for the Rays on Sunday against the Brewers, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

    Beeks will be making his fifth start of the season, but he has yet to throw more than three innings in any of his outings this season. The left-hander will likely give way to the Tampa Bay bullpen after a turn through the Milwaukee lineup come Sunday.

  • Rays' Jalen Beeks: Does job as opener

    Beeks pitched two scoreless innings in Tuesday's 8-5 win over the Mets while serving as the Rays' opening pitcher. He allowed one hit and struck out two.

    Beeks cruised through the opening two frames on 26 pitches while allowing just an infield single to Francisco Lindor. He and Yonny Chirinos have worked as a tandem on two straight occasions now, and manager Kevin Cash may continue to roll with the pairing at least until Tyler Glasnow (oblique) is ready to return to the rotation. Beeks now has four consecutive scoreless outings and has pitched more than an inning in four of his six appearances in May. He sits at a 4.91 ERA, 1.18 WHIP and 18:10 K:BB over 22 innings.

  • Rays' Jalen Beeks: Opening Tuesday's game

    Beeks will serve as the Rays' opening pitcher for Tuesday's game against the Mets, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

    He'll be followed by Yonny Chirinos, who is in line to pitch the bulk of the innings out of the bullpen. Beeks has gone at least two innings in five appearances this season, including his last two, but he'll be pitching on just two days' rest Tuesday.
