Retired World Series champ Matt Holliday lists $11.6 million Arizona estate he bought months ago
Retired Major League Baseball star Matt Holliday is ready to part ways with the newly built Paradise Valley, Ariz., estate he purchased earlier this year.
The Tampa Bay Rays have made a clear decision regarding $20 million pitcher Drew Rasmussen following their loss in the World Series. Rasmussen, who had an impressive 2026 season with a 2.67 ERA across 30 starts, will be returning to the team after the club exercised the option on his contract. This decision is expected, considering Rasmussen's impressive statistics, including 174 strikeouts in 172 innings.
While New York Yankees star Cam Schiltler is expected to win the AL Cy Young award, Rasmussen deserves at least a conversation for the honor. He was reliable in the postseason, pitching a 2.20 ERA and recording 31 strikeouts in five starts for the Rays. Despite falling short in the World Series, the Rays may have another chance to win it all in 2027 with Rasmussen back in the lineup.
However, unless a contract extension is reached, Rasmussen will likely enter the 2027 free agency period, potentially becoming a trade target. The Rays would prefer to retain Rasmussen for the long term.
