PTampa Bay Rays  AAA
March 24, 2026
The Rays optioned Bigge to Triple-A Durham on Tuesday, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
Analysis
The right-hander allowed just one run with a 10:3 K:BB across 6.1 innings during spring training, but he won't crack Tampa Bay's Opening Day roster. Bigge had a 2.40 ERA, 1.07 WHIP and 12:5 K:BB over 15 big-league innings last year, and it should only be a matter of time before the Rays give him a look in 2026.

2025 Fantasy Outlook
Bigge was dominant at the Triple-A level in 2024, posting a 2.25 ERA, 0.85 WHIP and 36:9 K:BB over 20 innings. With eight saves between the Cubs and Rays affiliates, he brought his total to 21 over his minor-league career. The 26-year-old righty's success in high-leverage earned him looks in the Chicago and Tampa Bay bullpens, respectively, earning one save and two holds across 19 appearances in the majors. Bigge primarily features an upper-90's fastball (59 percent pitch usage) and effective slider (30 percent) that produced a 52 percent whiff rate that was among the best in the league for that pitch type. He also mixes in an occasional curve to left-handed hitters and sweeper, so it will be interesting to see how he mixes his pitches over a full season. After an impressive September with the Rays last year (15:1 K:BB over nine innings), Bigge is a favorite to break camp with the club in 2025. Save chances are possible as the season progresses.
