Rays Will Listen On Randy Arozarena, Yandy Diaz, Isaac Paredes
5 months agoThe Tampa Bay Rays will listen to trade offers on outfielder Randy Arozarena, first baseman Yandy Diaz and third baseman Isaac Paredes in the right deal with the July 30 deadline quickly approaching. According to sources, the Rays and Seattle Mariners have yet to engage in serious dialogue about Seattle's interest in adding an impact bat this summer, but the two teams are frequent trading partners and talks could advance in the coming days as the second half of the 2024 season gets underway. It's just speculation right now, but it's something to keep an eye on. Arozarena, a first-time All-Star last year, has tanked in 2024 and is heading into the second half hitting just .202 (66-for-326), although he does have 12 homers, 31 RBI and 14 stolen bases in 93 games. A change of scenery to a contender could get him back on track in the second half.
