At age eighteen, Colomé signed with the Tampa Bay Devil Rays as an amateur free agent in March 2007. The Rays added him to their 40-man roster on November 18, 2011.[1]

The Rays promoted Colomé to the major leagues on May 29, 2013.[2] He started 3 games, posting a 2.25 earned run average (ERA).

On March 24, 2014, Colomé was suspended 50 games for failing a random drug test.[3] Colome ended the year 2–0 with a 2.66 ERA in 5 games, 3 of which were starts. Colomé saw his first significant playing time in 2015, most of it due to a switch to the bullpen, where he finished with 43 appearances and a 3.94 ERA.[citation needed]

In 2016, Colomé was named the full-time closer for the Rays due to an injury to Brad Boxberger. He kept the role as closer. He finished the season with 37 saves, fourth in the AL, and ended the season with a 1.91 ERA.[4] Colome was also selected to his first career All-Star game.

In 2017, Colomé became the sixth player in franchise history to reach 40 saves in a season;[5] he ended the season with 47 saves, which led the major leagues.[6]
