    Eflin, 28, became a free agent after turning down a $15 million mutual option for a $150,000 buyout from the Philadelphia Phillies, completing a $5.7 million, one-year contract.

    Eflin, who played his entire seven-year career in Philadelphia, will join a Rays rotation that includes Tyler Glasnow, Shane McClanahan and Drew Rasmussen.

    Last season, Eflin went 3-5 with a 4.04 ERA, striking out 65 in 75? innings. He pitched 4? scoreless innings in relief in the World Series, with the Phillies losing in six games to the Houston Astros.
