The twenty-eight year old has not appeared in a major league game this season yet.

In 2021-22, Perdomo pitched 17 innings for the Brewers, posting a 6.35 ERA, 1.65 WHIP, and 28 strikeouts. 

This season, in the minors, he's only thrown 4.1 innings and has not allowed a run. He's struck out eight batters in those innings.

Perdomo will report to Triple-A Durham, and provides the Rays with some extra pitching depth.

To make room on the 40-man roster, pitcher Cooper Criswell was designated for assignment.
