Rays Acquire Mason Englert From Detroit
                
        
        According to the team, the Tampa Bay Rays have acquired right-handed pitcher Mason  Englert from the Detroit Tigers in exchange for left-handed pitcher Drew Sommers. In a corresponding move, the Rays placed left-handed pitcher Nate  Lavender (elbow) on the 60-day injured list to open a spot on the roster for Englert. Englert has spent his entire time in the MLB with the Tigers. Last summer, the 25-year-old posted a 5.40 ERA with a 1.29 WHIP across 21 2/3 innings. He struck out 16 batters but showed strong command with a 5.6 percent walk rate. However, he allowed hard contact at a high 47.9 percent hard-hit rate and barrels at a 14.1 percent rate. Fantasy managers should expect Englert to compete for a low-leverage spot in the Tampa Bay bullpen during spring training.
