Tampa Bay Rays president of baseball operations Erik Neander said the team intends to keep pitcher Drew Rasmussen on the roster, according to reports on Wednesday.
Rasmussen, wearing number 57, started Game 5 of the World Series against the Milwaukee Brewers at Tropicana Field on October 28, 2026.
The right-hander has been a key part of the Rays' pitching staff, and Neander's comments signal the organization's commitment to retaining him for the upcoming season.
