With the fun (or demonic?) nickname of “Hellboy," Jeremy Hellickson debuted for the Tampa Bay Rays in 2010 after being a fourth-round pick in 2005.  He appeared in eight games, winning four of them, and as he did not exceed rookie limits, he was classified as one in 2011.  As a rookie, Hellickson would have his best season in the Majors, going 13-10, with a career-best 2.95 ERA, and would win the American League Rookie of the Year.

Hellickson went 10-11 with a 3.10 ERA in 2012 and had a better record in 2013 (12-10), but his ERA expanded to over five.  The 2012 Gold Glove winner would be injured for most of 2014 and was traded to the Arizona Diamondbacks after the season.

As a Ray, Hellickson went 40-36 with 463 Strikeouts.
