Rays designate Dan Johnson for assignment.
Well no sooner than we were figuring out where everyone would fit with the new Gabe Gross acquisition the Rays designated Dan Johnson for assignment. This gives the Rays 10 days to trade, release or pass him through waivers. This puts me a little more at ease as Gross, even though I’ve yet to see him play, can help out in the outfield. The Heater had the story first and you can read about it here.
In other Rays news Scott Kazmir made another rehab start this morning, yes at 10:30 am this morning and everything went well lining him up for one more rehab start and a May 3rd return to the bigs against Boston.
One more note on the Rays here. Credit is due to both DRaysBay and Rays Index who both do an outstanding job covering the Rays minor league affiliates. I used to keep up with that but with my job keeping me so busy and trying to keep up with all that’s going on in Tampa Bay and Orlando there’s no time for that anymore. I don’t feel like I’m missing much with the way these guys keep up with things though. Check out the above links and see.
