The Rays have designated right-hander Brandon Gomes for assignment and made the three-team trade sending Wil Myers to the Padres official, tweets Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times.
The 30-year-old Gomes posted a 3.71 ERA with 6.4 K/9 and 2.9 BB/9 in 34 innings last season, though a 4.60 FIP indicates that he was a bit fortuitous to keep his ERA that low. Gomes has a lifetime 4.17 ERA in parts of four seasons with Tampa. He was originally acquired in the trade that sent Jason Bartlett to San Diego.
