 R.J. Swindle-R- RaysNov. 14 - 1:11 pm et
Rays signed LHP R.J. Swindle to a minor league contract.
He also received an invite to spring training. Swindle was claimed off waivers from the Brewers in August, but never threw a pitch for the Rays after he was designated for assignment just one day later. He finished the year in the Cleveland organization, posting a 4.05 ERA in six appearances with Triple-A Columbus. The soft-tossing 26-year-old will likely compete with Randy Choate, among others, to be Tampa's left-handed specialist.

Indians outrighted LHPs R.J. Swindle, Rich Rundles and Zach Jackson to Triple-A Columbus.
All three are considered fringe major leaguers who serve as depth in Triple-A.
 R.J. Swindle-R - Rays Aug. 12 - 2:31 pm et

Indians claimed LHP R.J. Swindle off waivers from the Rays and optioned him to Triple-A Columbus.
It has been a whirlwind week for Swindle, who was claimed by the Rays from the Brewers on Friday, then designated for assignment one day later. He'll work in relief at Triple-A for now.
 R.J. Swindle-R - Rays Aug. 8 - 7:13 pm et

Rays designated LHP R.J. Swindle for assignment.
Swindle was claimed just one day ago by the Rays, but will get the boot to make room for Russ Springer. He gave up 12 runs in 6 2/3 innings with the Brewers before these transactions, so there's a chance he could clear waivers and wind up back at Triple-A Durham.

Rays claimed LHP R.J. Swindle off waivers from the Brewers.
Swindle was cut by the Brewers after giving up 12 runs in 6 2/3 innings. Since he has minor league options left, the Rays are expected to send him to Triple-A Durham.
 R.J. Swindle-R - Rays Aug. 7 - 1:18 pm et

Brewers designated LHP R.J. Swindle for assignment.
