Eligibility
Jason Adam secured his third save of the season in the Rays' 10-8 victory over the Mets.
Fantasy Impact
He allowed one earned run and two hits while striking out one batter in his inning of work. Despite a slightly shaky outing, Adam's overall performance this season remains strong, boasting a 1.80 ERA and a 0.73 WHIP. His ability to close games is evident, though his K/9 rate suggests limited strikeout upside, which might concern some fantasy managers. Given his solid ERA and WHIP, he should continue to be a reliable option for saves and holds, but don't expect him to rack up strikeouts at an elite rate.
Jason Adam delivered under pressure, allowing just one hit and one walk while striking out two to notch a save in the Rays' 1-0 win over the Brewers.
Fantasy Impact
This performance underscores a season of solid reliability from Adam, who now boasts a 1.29 ERA and a 0.64 WHIP through 15 appearances. His ability to maintain a low BABIP (.129) and a decent strikeout-to-walk ratio (3.00) suggests that while he might not be the flashiest option in fantasy leagues, his consistency, especially in holds and now increasingly in save situations, makes him a viable option for fantasy managers in need of steady bullpen contributions.
Jason Adam could be in line for increased save opportunities with Pete Fairbanks being placed on the IL.
Fantasy Impact
Adam has 20 career saves, all recorded during the 2022 and 2023 seasons. With Fairbanks sidelined with a nerve issue, Adam could get the first shot at closing games for the Rays.
Jason Adam lost his arbitration hearing with the Rays and will earn $2.7 million.
Fantasy Impact
Adam had filed for $3.25 million in the hearing. He'll continue to work in a high leverage out of the Rays bullpen.
Rays RP Jason Adam was placed on the 15-day IL with a left oblique strain.
Fantasy Impact
Adam underwent tests after exiting his relief appearance Friday and will now miss at least the remainder of the regular season. The team is hopeful that the 32-year-old will recover in time to join the Rays’ postseason roster.
