Choi Activated From Injured List
The Rays also activated first baseman Ji-Man Choi from the 10-day injured list prior to Monday’s contest in Chicago.
The 30-year-old first baseman went on the 10-day injured list June 4, retroactive to June 3, with a strained left groin, and missed one day over the minimum.
To make room on the active roster for Choi, infielder Mike Brosseau was optioned to Triple-A Durham.
Steve Carney is the founder and publisher of St. Pete Nine. One of the people most associated with baseball coverage in Tampa Bay, he spent 13 seasons covering the Rays for flagship radio station WDAE, first as producer of Rays Radio broadcasts, then as beat reporter beginning in 2011. He likes new analytics and aged bourbon, and is the owner of one of the ugliest knuckleballs ever witnessed by baseball scouts.
