News
	The Rays said Ryan Pepiot's right hip surgery Wednesday went well and he is expected to make a full recovery for spring training next year. Ari Koslow Wed, May 13th	Javier Assad allowed two runs on sevent hits and no walks while striking out four across five innings in Saturday's 5-3 win over the Cincinnati Reds. Nicholas Rodriguez Sat, Jul 11th
	Ryan Pepiot (hip) will miss the remainder of the 2026 season to undergo right hip surgery. The surgery is scheduled for May 13. David Leisering Fri, May 1st	Javier Assad allowed no runs on two hits and two walks while striking out two across 4.2 innings in Sunday's 6-4 win over the St. Louis Cardinals. Nicholas Rodriguez Mon, Jul 6th
	Rays manager Kevin Cash said Ryan Pepiot had a bad day on Monday as his right hip felt “unstable” while playing catch. Ari Koslow Mon, Apr 20th	Javier Assad will start one of the two games for the Cubs in Wednesday's doubleheader. Ari Koslow Mon, Jun 22nd
	The Rays transferred RHP Ryan Pepiot to the 60-day injured list. Ari Koslow Tue, Apr 14th	Javier Assad improved to 5-1 on the season, allowing two runs on five hits over 5.2 innings, in an 8-6 Cubs' win over the Rockies on Wednesday. David Leisering Thu, Jun 18th
	Pepiot has not pitched in a game setting since March 17 and was placed on the IL prior to Opening Day with right hip inflammation. He may need more than one rehab start before Tampa Bay brings him back. Bruno Mulé Mon, Apr 13th	Javier Assad allowed three hits and one walk while striking out five over six scoreless innings in Friday's win over the Giants. Chris Schommer Sat, Jun 13th
Notes
	Ryan Pepiot logged a career-high 167 2/3 innings in 2025, but the underlying metrics point to mild regression risk after his ERA rose to 3.86 with a 4.36 FIP. The 2026 projections peg him for similar volume with a mid-3.00s ERA and roughly a strikeout per inning, reinforcing his profile as a stable SP3/4 in fantasy formats. Pepiot's swing-and-miss ability remains intact, and the move back to Tropicana Field should correct the issues with the long ball. However, draft him for ratio stability and workload rather than expecting another skills leap. Kelly Kirby - FantasyPros
