The Rays designated Bigge for assignment Tuesday.
The transaction frees a spot on the 40-man roster for the addition of Nick Madrigal. Bigge has looked like a high-leverage reliever at times but has struggled in 2026, posting a 6.98 ERA and 14:14 K:BB over 19.1 innings with the Rays and a 6.14 ERA and 37:20 K:BB over 29.1 frames with Triple-A Durham. The 28-year-old is under team control for several more years and could drawn interest via waivers.
