[Lets Go Rays]

Hammel said he has been traded to the Rockies and Niemann was told he'll be the Rays fifth starter.

Woohoo. Niemann as the 5th starter for us.

Thanks CJ.

Here's who the Rox gave up in return (kind of important)

Though there's been no official announcement as of yet, the Times has confirmed the Rays will get 21-year-old RHP prospect Aneury Rodriguez in return

Good move by the Rockies. They needed pitching and got a medicore guy who was out of options. Stick him back in AAA and see if he can make the team after Marquis gives up a ton of runs.
