Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across MLB. Throughout the year we ask questions of the most plugged-in Rays fans and fans across the country.
The Rays were buyers in a sellers market for the 2026 trade deadline, and came away with four key additions:
Rays acquire RHP Freddy Peralta from Mets for OF Aidan Smith, INF Emilien Pitre, and RHP Gary Gill Hill
Rays acquire C/1B Liam Hicks from Marlins for INF Brayden Taylor, SS Adrian Santana, and RHP Jacob Kisting
Rays acquire RHP Tyler Wells from Orioles for RHP Michael Forret
Rays acquire OF Jack Suwinski, int’l money from Dodgers for C Hunter Feduccia, RHP Jacob Kmatz
In my instant reaction, I gave the front office an A for balancing the need to hold on to top prospects while addressing the majority of needs on the roster.
