The Rays have designated Heath Bell for assignment, according to Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times (on Twitter). It’s a potentially costly decision for Tampa Bay as they’re on the hook for $5.5MM of Bell’s $9MM salary.
The Rays can theoretically get out from under their financial obligation to Bell if they find a trade partner in the next ten days, but that won’t be easy. Bell, 36, is three years removed from his All-Star form and has struggled mightily thus far in 2014. In 13 outings (17.1 innings), Bell has a 7.27 ERA with 12 strikeouts and eight walks.

Joe made a "We're still in it" speech last night. Winning 6 of 7 has only bumped their playoff odds from about 1% to 4% in the last week.

@TBTimes_Rays BREAKING: Andrew Friedman is leaving #Rays for #Dodgers. Matt Silverman will take over Rays baseball operations.

being close-but-no-cigar that many times in a row has to have made him kinda salty, and friedman's exit couldn't have helped matters

Fredi Gonzalez has Bobby Cox as his guardian angel, but I wouldn't be surprised if Schuerholz/Hart/Coppollela make a play for Maddon.

Jeff Passan ✔ @JeffPassanFollowDodgers are indeed out on Joe Maddon, as @Ken_Rosenthal said. Not happening. Period. Cubs and Mets considered by friends to be favorites.
