| 5/18/25 | Rays aim for speedy recovery from woes in series with Astros. After a sluggish start through 46 games, the Tampa Bay Rays will act fast to change their direction when they host the Houston Astros on Monday night to open a nine-game homestand. Fast might be the key word here, especially after losing two of three to the National League East's last-place Miami Marlins over the weekend. The American League East's fourth-place club at four games under .500, the Rays and their frequently hibernating offense have received a spark from speedy center fielder Chandler Simpson. Simpson, 24, has injected life into the Rays' lineup, which is tied for 11th in the AL in runs scored with 179 (3.89 per game) and tied for seventh in batting average (.242).
