Jose Siri Begins Rehab Assignment Friday
2 years agoTampa Bay Rays outfielder Jose Siri (hamstring) began his minor-league rehab assignment with Triple-A Durham on Friday. He started as the designated hitter and went 0-for-4 with three strikeouts out of the two-hole for the Bulls. "The plan is for an off day the next day, then play Sunday, and then we'll go from there," Rays manager Kevin Cash said. Meanwhile, reliever Ryan Thompson (lat), who landed on the injured list on April 15, is expected back soon after he's eligible. Barring a setback this weekend, Siri should return to the Rays starting lineup at some point next week. The 27-year-old had gone 7-for-22 (.318) with two home runs, eight RBI and a steal in six games before his injury. Pick him up now if he was dropped by his previous manager.
