Farquhar was credited with his third hold of the season in Tuesday's victory over the Blue Jays, giving up a hit and a walk over two-thirds of an inning. He also recorded a strikeout.

EDGE Analysis

Farquhar came in to relieve Dana Eveland in the seventh with Kevin Pillar on first and was able to wiggle out of the inning after making things interesting. He got things started off right by getting the pinch-hitting Dioner Navarro to fly out, but then gave up a single to Devon Travis and issued a free pass to Jose Bautista, loading the bases. However, the 29-year-old bore down to whiff the dangerous Edwin Encarnacion to end the inning, notching his ninth straight scoreless appearance in the process. After his ERA reached an unsightly 6.94 on Aug. 7, Farquhar has now lowered that figure by over three full runs over his subsequent 15 trips to the mound, giving up only two earned runs over the 17.1 innings covering that span.

EDGE Analysis

Farquhar has spent time with the Rays already this season, appearing in 11 games while posting a 6.75 ERA and a 1.59 WHIP over 10.2 innings of work. He was called back up due to Enny Romero suffering a back injury that will force him to miss time on the disabled list.

Farquhar was optioned to Triple-A Durham on Tuesday, Steve Carney of 620 WDAE reports.

EDGE Analysis

Alex Colome's return from the disabled list Tuesday meant that the Rays needed to clear a roster spot, and Farquhar's recent struggles made him a prime candidate to be optioned. He gave up two huge runs in Sunday's eventual 5-1 loss to the Tigers after Chris Archer had held Detroit scoreless through 5.2 innings.

EDGE Analysis

The 29-year-old reliever continues to struggle, now having given up at least one earned run in five of his last six trips to the mound. The long ball has primarily been Farquhar's undoing, as he's given up a homer in each of those appearances. The veteran right-hander's ERA is up to a bloated 6.75 following Sunday's performance, and he's seen that figure rise after each of his last six outings.
