According to Robert Murray of FanSided, the Astros, Red Sox, Nationals and Twins are among the teams interested in free agent right-hander Alex Colome.
Murray also notes that each franchise has individual ties to Colome, thanks to the presence of former Rays employees within each organization. The 32-year-old right-hander, who was with the Rays from 2013-2018, recorded a microscopic 0.84 ERA, 0.94 WHIP and 16/8 K/BB ratio over 21 1/3 innings while also converting 12 saves during the shortened 2020 campaign. There's still a chance that he could reunite with the White Sox, but he would be a logical fit as a high-leverage bullpen arm and potential short-term closing option with any of those potential suitors. The market for free agent relievers has been moving at a glacial pace, with very few notable signings, but there appears to be plenty of interest in Colome this offseason.
