Days, weeks and, in some cases, months of talks between the Rays and other teams will be resolved one way or another by today's 4 p.m. deadline for non-waiver deals.

RHP Chris Archer has been the primary topic of conversation, with more than 10 teams seriously interested, with a half-dozen or so believed to have still been engaged on Monday as the Rays asked for final offers, including the Braves, Dodgers, Cardinals., Yankees and Padres. Also said to be involved to some degrees have been the A's, Astros, Brewers, Cubs, Philllies and Pirates.

The Rays have also have lots of talks about C Wilson Ramos, whose hamstring injury has not impacted interest, and RHP Sergio Romo. SS Adeiny Hechavarria is also available.

Several deals are expected today.

Coming down to the deadline day to make deals is quite common for the Rays —they made one last year in Houston in trading Tim Beckham, and three in 2016 — and be expected this year.

The team said Monday media access to the clubhouse on Tuesday, which normally is 3-4 p.m. for a 7:10 game, would be moved up to 2:45 to 3:35, which will clear the clubhouse of reporters ahead of what could be dramatic or final moments, with a player summoned to manager Kevin Cash's office and his teammates reacting.

Here is a list of the Rays deadline day deals:

2017: Traded INF Tim Beckham to Orioles for minor-league RHP Tobias Myers.
