Yonny Chirinos Activated From Injured List
The Tampa Bay Rays activated right-hander Yonny Chirinos (elbow) from the 60-day injured list on Tuesday and placed right-hander Drew Rasmussen on the paternity list in a corresponding move. Chirinos has Tommy John surgery in August of 2020 and hasn't pitched in the big leagues since. In three different minor league stops during his rehab outing, he had a 5.12 ERA and 1.24 WHIP while striking out 14 and walking six in 19 1/3 innings over nine appearances (five starts). Given the 28-year-old's long layoff, he's unlikely to be used all that often down the stretch, but he could serve as the bulk pitcher behind JT Chargois on Tuesday against the Boston Red Sox after Rasmussen was scratched.
