The Tampa Bay Rays' manager, Kevin Cash, is being praised for his exceptional job performance. Despite the possibility of trading several key players due to salary increases, the team's general manager, Erik Neander, has expressed interest in keeping the current roster intact and maintaining a record payroll of around $120 million. The Rays currently have seven players on the 60-day injured list who will need to be added to the 40-man roster, which currently has four open spots. Additionally, the team may need to add Rule 5 prospects in November, although it is unlikely they will add many this year. The Rays' ability to increase payroll has been emphasized by the team's management, even amidst rumors of a potential trade involving Tyler Glasnow.

With some built-in salary increases, topped by Glasnow’s raise to $25M, #Rays would seem likely to trade several name players. But Neander says running it back with the same group, and thus sporting a record payroll ~ $120M, is an option. https://t.co/qe8MBbV4YY
Here’s a snapshot of the Rays current roster dynamics. They have seven 60-day IL players who will need to be added to the 40-man roster which currently has four open spots.
