Jeremy Hellickson didn’t allow a run but pitched just one inning in Tuesday’s loss to the Red Sox.
Rays manager Joe Maddon made it clear going into the elimination game that he wouldn’t be shy about going to his bullpen early, and he sure meant it. Hellickson got through a clean first inning but was then pulled after two walks and a single to start the second. Jamey Wright managed to escape the frame without a run scoring. Maddon ended up using every one of his relievers and also starter Matt Moore, but it wasn’t enough. Oct 9 - 12:39 AM

Jeremy Hellickson - S - Rays

Rays manager Joe Maddon announced that Jeremy Hellickson will start Game 4 of the ALDS against the Red Sox, if necessary.

That's assuming he's not needed in relief before then. Maddon believes that Hellickson, who held a 3.44 ERA and 0.98 WHIP against the Red Sox in three starts this season, is a better matchup. Archer put up a 5.19 ERA and 2.08 WHIP in his two outings versus Boston in 2013.

Jeremy Hellickson - S - Rays

Jeremy Hellickson struggled in Friday’s loss to the Blue Jays, surrendering six runs (three earned) on six hits and two walks over 4 2/3 innings.

Hellickson’s one redeeming quality in the start was that he racked up five strikeouts. His defense certainly didn’t do him any favors in this one, making three errors which contributed to three unearned runs. Despite his 12-10 record, the 26-year-old right-hander has taken a major step backwards this season, registering a 5.17 ERA, 1.35 WHIP and 135/50 K/BB ratio in 174 innings. Once seemingly a fixture in the Rays rotation, Hellickson may have to earn his spot next Spring.

Jeremy Hellickson allowed five runs in 2 2/3 innings in a loss against the Rangers on Tuesday.

Hellickson allowed a leadoff home run to Ian Kinsler, and it didn't get much better from there. He allowed two homers on the night, the second straight game he's allowed two homers. Hellickson's ERA is at 5.23 and at this point it's hard to see the Wild Card hopeful Rays continue to roll with him. Jake Odorizzi, who started for Triple-A Durham in the Triple-A National Championship on Tuesday, could be a candidate to replace him.

Jeremy Hellickson allowed three runs in 5 1/3 innings and struck out seven in a no-decision against the Red Sox on Thursday.

Hellickson allowed just four hits, but two of them were home run balls, which has been a big problem for him all season long. It was still a pretty solid showing against an excellent offense. The Rays have won both of his starts since he came back up from the minors.

Jeremy Hellickson scattered four hits over 5 1/3 shutout innings to beat the Angels on Wednesday.

Another night, another successful returning starter for the Rays. On Tuesday, Matt Moore gave up no earned runs coming off a month-long layoff. One day later, Hellickson returned from his brief sabbatical to Montgomery and did the same. Hellickson had formerly been serving biscuits, as opposed to being rostered by the Biscuits, posting a 9.15 ERA over 20 2/3 innings in August. Boston's lineup on Tuesday should provide us with a good barometer to gauge whether or not the Hellickson of old is back.

Rays recalled RHP Jeremy Hellickson from Double-A Montgomery.

Hellickson will start Wednesday against the Angels. He was optioned last week after posting a 9.15 ERA over 20 2/3 innings in August, but the Rays are hoping that the demotion will get him back on track.

Jeremy Hellickson - S - Rays

Jeremy Hellickson could rejoin the Rays' rotation on Wednesday.

It will likely either be him or Roberto Hernandez, with an outside shot at a bullpen start. Hellickson was sent down last week after posting a 9.15 ERA over 20 2/3 innings in August, but the Rays are hoping he'll feel recharged after getting some extra rest.

The Rays transferred Jeremy Hellickson to Double-A Montgomery on Sunday, allowing him to be recalled when the Biscuits' season ends on Tuesday.

Hellickson was demoted to figure things out after posting a 9.15 ERA over 20 2/3 innings in August. When he does return, it's unclear whether that will be in the rotation or in the Rays' bullpen.

Rays optioned RHP Jeremy Hellickson to High-A Charlotte.

Hellickson had a 9.15 ERA in 20 2/3 innings in August and the Rays could no longer afford to keep him in their rotation. The 26-year-old right-hander should be brought back up (though maybe not as a starter) in September.

Jeremy Hellickson may be skipped on his next turn through the Rays' starting rotation.

Hellickson is not hurt, but he has a hideous 9.15 ERA in 20 2/3 innings this month and the Rays think extra rest might do him some good. The 26-year-old right-hander can no longer be trusted in standard mixed leagues.

Jeremy Hellickson allowed four runs in just 4 1/3 innings in a loss to the Orioles on Wednesday.

Somewhere along the line Hellickson managed to win 10 games, but his last -- and the last time he bore a resemblance to that pitcher -- came on July 26. On Wednesday he allowed seven hits, including two home runs, and three walks while failing to last five innings for the fourth time in his last five starts. It's impossible to advocate owning Hellickson in mixed leagues while he's going like this. He'll look to get on track against the Angels on Tuesday.

Jeremy Hellickson turned in a quality start in a no-decision against the Blue Jays on Friday, allowing three runs on nine hits over his six frames.

Hellickson walked one and struck out three on the evening. The Jays got to him for RBI singles in the first, fifth and sixth innings, but Hellickson was able to pitch around any further damage. He’s now win-less in his last four starts, posting an 8.00 ERA in the process. He’ll look to right the ship when he does battle against the Orioles in Baltimore on Wednesday.

Jeremy Hellickson allowed four runs and lasted just three innings in Sunday's night's loss to the Dodgers.

He gave up seven hits and had two strikeouts before being removed at 51 pitches. Hellickson has struggled as of late, with 13 runs over his last three outings. His next start is Saturday vs. the Blue Jays.

Jeremy Hellickson was shelled for five runs on five hits over 4 2/3 innings in a loss to the Diamondbacks on Tuesday.

The Snakes bit Hellickson in Tampa Bay for four runs over 4 1/3 innings in another loss Wednesday. This time, in Arizona, league rules at least gave him the opportunity to collect a single off Arizona foe Wade Miley. The league teed off on Hellickson earlier this season, but the 26-year-old rebounded during a great stretch from June 19-July 26, posting a 2.96 ERA over nine starts. We're confident that Hellickson's 4.77 ERA will diminish. His high BABIP is destined to drop and his unusually low strand rate is bound to rise.
