Seattle Mariners pitcher Robbie Ray is coming off the most successful season of his career. He owned a 13-7 record along with a 2.84 ERA, 1.04 WHIP, and a 248:52 K: BB over 193 1/3 innings for the Toronto Blue Jays in 2021. The 30-year-old won American League CY Young Award and was rewarded with a five-year deal from the Seattle Mariners during the offseason.

Reigning American League Cy Young winner Robbie Ray and the Seattle Mariners are finalizing a five-year, $115 million deal on Monday that includes an opt-out after the third season, according to sources familiar with the deal. Seattle will have to give up a draft pick after the lefty declined Toronto's qualifying offer. Ray will give the M's a legitimate ace atop their starting rotation after coming off a career season in 2021 in which he led the AL in ERA (2.84) and innings (193 1/3) and became...

The Boston Red Sox are interested in adding free-agent Cy Young Award winner Robbie Ray, according to MLB.com. They are looking to add at least one premium starting pitcher after losing left-hander Eduardo Rodriguez on the open market. Ray, coming off his best season by far, went 13-7 with a 2.84 ERA, 1.04 WHIP and 32.1 strikeout percentage in 193 1/3 innings with the Toronto Blue Jays. He was able to eliminate the free passes, something that he's struggled with his whole career, walking just ...

The Toronto Blue Jays have already locked up right-hander Jose Berrios to a seven-year extension, and they are now setting their sights on bringing back two other members of their 2021 rotation, left-handers Robbie Ray and Steven Matz. Each had a breakout season in Toronto, with Ray winning the Cy Young Award and Matz posting a 3.82 ERA, his best since 2016. Each has been reported to have a robust market, but with little future payroll tied up, Toronto is in prime position to make a push to ...

Toronto Blue Jays starter Robbie Ray won the American League Cy Young Award on Wednesday. The 30-year-old received all but one first-place vote in taking home the award. Ray had a career year in 2021, leading all qualified American League starting pitchers with 193.1 innings pitched, 248 strikeouts, and a 2.84 ERA. The left-hander, who is currently a free agent, got much better at limiting walks this past season, which certainly helped. He walked just 52 batters last season. For reference, Ray ...

The Toronto Blue Jays are reportedly interested in re-signing starting pitcher Steven Matz, according to a tweet from The New York Post's Joel Sherman. In his first season with the Blue Jays, the left-hander pitched to a 3.82 ERA and a 3.79 FIP in 150.2 innings, striking out 144 batters while surrendering 43 walks. With Matz and fellow starter Robbie Ray currently free agents, Toronto's rotation options at present include Hyun-Jin Ryu, Jose Berrios, Alek Manoah, and Ross Stripling.

The Toronto Blue Jays are extending a one-year, $18.4 million qualifying offer to left-hander Robbie Ray on Saturday. Ray, who is coming off a career season and has a chance to win his first Cy Young award, is surely to decline the offer and cash in on the open market. The 30-year-old southpaw went 13-7 with an American League-leading 2.84 ERA, 248 strikeouts and a 6.7 wins above replacement in a league-high 193 1/3 innings in Toronto in 2021. Ray had signed a one-year, $8 million deal with the...
