The Rays recalled Head from Triple-A Durham on Friday, Neil Solondz of the Rays Radio Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

With a 2.93 ERA and 1.01 WHIP in 27.2 innings with the Rays this season, Head has developed into a trustworthy, low-leverage relief option for manager Kevin Cash. He and Dietrich Enns fill the roster spots of Shane McClanahan (back) and Matt Wisler (finger), who both went on the injured list Friday.

Head was optioned to Triple-A Durham on Wednesday, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Head spent a day in the Rays' bullpen and was effective as a middle reliever Tuesday, as he tossed two scoreless innings against the Red Sox. However, he'll head back to the minors after Matt Wisler (finger) was activated Wednesday.

Head was recalled by the Rays on Tuesday, Steve Carney of Sports Radio 620 WDAE reports.

EDGE Analysis

Head has bounced on and off the edge of the major-league roster throughout the season. That's the life of a reliever with options, as the 31-year-old's 3.16 ERA and 1.05 WHIP in 25.2 innings are seemingly good enough for him to stick around. Taylor Walls was optioned to clear space on the roster, with the Rays electing to go with an extra arm over an extra infielder for now.

Head was optioned to Triple-A Durham on Thursday, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Head had pitched well in the weeks following the All-Star break and allowed just one unearned run in 11 innings across nine appearances. However, he struggled in his last four outings and gave up six runs on seven hits and three walks while striking out six in 3.2 innings. His demotion will make room for Pete Fairbanks (shoulder), who is expected to rejoin the Rays' bullpen during their weekend series against the Orioles.

EDGE Analysis

Head rejoined the Rays on Monday after a one-day stint in the minors and will make the first start of his MLB career. The 31-year-old has a 1.85 ERA, 0.90 WHIP and 22:9 K:BB over 24.1 innings this season. Ryan Yarbrough (COVID-19 injured list) is poised to follow as Wednesday's primary pitcher.

EDGE Analysis

The 31-year-old was sent down Sunday, but he'll rejoin the major-league bullpen a day later after right-hander Matt Wisler (finger) was placed on the 10-day injured list Monday. Head has posted a 1.96 ERA and 0.87 WHIP in 23 innings across 17 relief appearances in the majors this year.

EDGE Analysis

Head's back-and-forth between the majors and minors will continue, as he'll return to Durham five days after being promoted. The 31-year-old has a 1.96 ERA, 0.87 WHIP and 20:8 K:BB over 23 innings for the Rays this season, so it should only be a matter of time before he rejoins the big-league club.

The Rays recalled Head from Triple-A Durham on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

After being demoted to Durham on Saturday, Head was able to rejoin the big club in only three days after fellow reliever DJ Johnson (shoulder) was moved to the 10-day injured list. Over his 20 innings out of the Tampa Bay bullpen this season, Head has posted excellent ratios (1.35 ERA, 0.85 WHIP, 8/1 K/9), but the Rays' wealth of quality relief arms will likely relegate him to low-leverage work.

EDGE Analysis

Head made seven relief appearances during his time with the major-league club, and he allowed an unearned run on five hits and two walks while striking out 12 in nine innings. Despite his impressive performance, he'll head back to Triple-A after Collin McHugh (arm) was reinstated from the 10-day injured list Saturday.

Head, who current major-league stint dates back to July 23, owns a spotless ERA, 0.86 WHIP and 14.1 K/9 across the seven innings covering the five appearances he's logged since his promotion from Triple-A Durham.

EDGE Analysis

The career minor-leaguer's success is no outlier as far as 2021 is concerned, as he also has produced a 1.96 ERA and 1.09 WHIP over 23 innings with the Bulls, and corresponding 1.50 and 0.89 figures across 18 big-league frames. All three earned runs that Head has allowed with the Rays this season came during an April 30 outing against the Astros, with the right-hander giving up just a sole unearned run over 11 other appearances.
