  • Not in Friday's lineup
    Buxton (knee) is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Red Sox, Brandon Warne of Access Twins reports.

    Advice: Buxton was sent for an MRI after being lifted from Wednesday's contest due to an issue with his right knee, so it's not a major surprise he's not starting Friday. It remains to be seen if the 30-year-old will require a trip to the injured list, but the injury is a concerning given it's the same knee in which he's undergone multiple surgeries.

  • Sidelined Friday
    Florial is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Angels.

    Advice: Florial will get a rare off-day against a right-handed pitcher, with Jose Ramirez filling in at DH and Gabriel Arias playing third. While he almost exclusively plays against LHP, Florial has stumbled to a .196 average and a 46.4 percent strikeout rate through 20 games played. Rotowire.com 6 minutes ago
     
  • Returns to lineup Friday
    Moreno (mouth) will catch and bat seventh in Friday's contest against the Padres.

    Advice: Moreno didn't play Wednesday following a dental procedure, but he's ready to go following the Diamondbacks' off day Thursday. The young catcher sports a disappointing .669 OPS on the season and has yet to go deep. Rotowire.com 12 minutes ago
     
  • Receives day off
    Cowser is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Reds.

    Advice: Cowser will get a breather for Friday's game, as Heston Kjerstad fills in at left field. Through 30 games, Cowser is slashing .277/.351/.578 with six homers and three stolen bases. Rotowire.com 12 minutes ago
     
  • Gets breather
    Palacios is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Mets.

    Advice: Palacios has been an everyday starter for the Rays lately with Jose Siri dealing with a suspension and Josh Lowe (hamstring) on the 10-day IL. However, the newly recalled Johnny DeLuca will fill in at center field Friday. Rotowire.com 18 minutes ago
     
  • Back in lineup
    Paredes (arm) is the designated hitter and batting second for Friday's game against the Mets.

    Advice: Paredes got the day off Wednesday with some soreness in his arm and body but returns to the Rays lineup in a non-defensive capacity. Considering Friday kicks off a stretch of 19 games in the next 20 days, Paredes' soreness should be monitored but isn't something to be concerned about at the moment. Rotowire.com 23 minutes ago

  • Rays activate Jonny DeLuca from the IL
    Rays activated Jonny DeLuca (hand) from the 10-day injured list.

    Advice: DeLuca had been out since early March, but had a rehab assignment with Triple-A Durham last week where he went 0-for-4 with an RBI. The 25-year-old spent the 2023 season with the Dodgers where he had an average .740 OPS across 45 plate appearances. He’ll likely make his Rays debut sometime this weekend.

  • Rays option René Pinto to Triple-A
    Rays optioned C René Pinto to Triple-A Durham.

    Advice: Pinto will head back to the minors after recently losing playing time to Ben Rortvedt. The 27-year-old backstop has slashed .214/.292/.429 with two homers and six RBI in his 49 plate appearances this season. Rotoworld 29 minutes ago
     
  • Rays option Niko Goodrum to Triple-A
    Rays optioned INF Niko Goodrum to Triple-A Durham.

    Advice: Goodrum will head down to the minors after he put together just four hits in his 37 plate appearances with the Rays this season. The 32-year-old was added to the Rays in a trade with the Twins at the beginning of the season as infield depth, but he hasn’t made the mark he nor the Rays hoped he could. Rotoworld 30 minutes ago
