Alvarado was recalled from Triple-A Durham on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Alvarado will rejoin the big club after posting a 3.93 ERA and 26:13 K:BB through 18.1 innings with Durham. He posted an unimpressive 4.76 ERA in 22.2 innings with the Rays earlier in the season, so he's expected to pitch in lower-leverage situations down the stretch.
