Jason Adam News
Tampa Bay Rays right-hander Jason Adam lost his salary arbitration case against the team on Tuesday. As a result, he'll earn $2.7 million in 2024 instead of the $3.25 million that he filed for. This was Adam's second year of arbitration eligibility. The 32-year-old reliever has been very reliable out of the bullpen for the Rays the last two seasons, going a combined 6-5 with a 2.22 ERA (3.38 FIP), a 0.87 WHIP, 20 saves, 37 walks and 144 strikeouts in 117 2/3 relief innings. Pete Fairbanks will open the year as Tampa's primary closer, but Adam should remain fantasy relevant in leagues that count holds as a high-leverage, late-inning reliever. Adam picked up 11 holds and 12 saves in his sixth major-league season in 2023.
Tampa Bay Rays relief pitcher Jason Adam (oblique) is headed for imaging after experiencing oblique discomfort during Friday's 6-2 loss to the Toronto Blue Jays. The right-hander just returned from a multi-week absence with an oblique strain, but this pain is in a different area and apparently more severe. Adam has been an invaluable member of Tampa Bay's bullpen in 2023, attaining a 2.98 ERA, 1.01 WHIP, and 69:20 K:BB with 12 saves across 54 1/3 innings, so it would be a big loss if he's facing another extended absence. Fantasy managers may want to prepare for the 32-year-old to be done for the remainder of the regular year as the Rays keep an eye toward the playoffs.
Tampa Bay Rays reliever Jason Adam left Friday night's game early. The early exit is thought to be because of injury, as he left with the trainer. This was the first appearance for Adam after recovering from an oblique strain. The righty has been an integral part of the Rays bullpen and of fantasy teams. He's picked up 12 saves on the year with a 2.98 ERA, 1.01 WHIP, and 69 strikeouts over 54 1/2 innings.

Jason Adam has proven to be a valuable commodity for the Tampa Bay Rays. The 32-year-old righty had four wins, 12 saves, a 2.98 ERA, and 1.01 WHIP with 69 strikeouts in 54 1/3 innings. Adam took over the closer seat for the injured Pete Fairbanks last year, earning 11 of his saves in May and June. The veteran is a master at limiting hard contact, as evidenced by his 87.2 average exit velocity, good for the 84th percentile. He also has a 31.1K%, which puts him in the 93rd percentile in MLB. Adam's best pitch is his change-up, which he pairs with a four-seam fastball and a sweeper. His ATC projections are at 11 saves, with 15 holds, a 3.30 ERA, and a 1.09 WHIP. The NFBC ADP of 313 shows that fantasy players are drafting Adam as a third reliever with upside in many leagues.
