Mandatory Credit: Jeff Curry-Imagn Images The Tampa Rays activated left-handed reliever Garrett Cleavinger from the injured list Saturday, while right-hander Yoendrys Gomez was designated for assignment, the Tampa Bay Times reported.
Cleavinger, 32, has not pitched since March 30 because of right calf tightness. He was 1-1 with a 7.71 ERA in three relief outings this season and pitched a scoreless inning for Team USA in this spring's World Baseball Classic.
Over seven major league seasons, including the last five with the Rays, Cleavinger is 14-17 with a 3.25 ERA in 193 appearances (one start).
Gomez, 26, had a 6.23 ERA in nine relief appearances for Tampa Bay this season. He is 3-3 with a 5.11 ERA in four major league seasons with four different clubs, including parts of his first three seasons (2023-25) with the New York Yankees.
