Tampa Bay Rays right-hander Drew Rasmussen will not start Tuesday's home game against the Chicago Cubs after his wife went into early labor.
Rasmussen, 30, had been scheduled to make his third start of the season after he fashioned a 1.80 ERA in 10 combined innings over the first two outings.
The Rays are expected to cover Tuesday's game with a bullpen day as right-hander Mason Englert will be the probable starter, the Tampa Bay Times reported.
In seven major league seasons, Rasmussen is 30-17 with a 2.87 ERA in 132 appearances (83 starts) for the Milwaukee Brewers (2020-21) and the Rays. He was an American Leage All-Star for the first time last season when he went 10-5 with a 2.76 ERA in 31 starts.
