JP with 9 walks and 9 strikeouts since the trade. Richards with 1 walk and 12 strikeouts since the trade. I assumed Richards would be a slight downgrade from JP. If it’s at least a wash, then it’s basically Rasmussen for Adames. For some reason Rasmussen is in the minors for the Rays and not even being stretched out as a starter. It makes it puzzling why the Rays would make the deal if they didn’t have a need for a reliever. They must think Rasmussen has incredible upside. In any case, thank you, Rays!
