Rays optioned RHP Hunter Bigge to Triple-A Durham.

Bigge earned a ticket back to the minors following an eighth-inning meltdown against the Angels on Friday night where he allowed all three batters he faced to reach safely and failed to record an out. The 27-year-old holds an abysmal 6.98 ERA, 1.45 WHIP and 14/14 K/BB ratio across 19 1/3 innings this season.
