Shifts rehab to Single-A McKay (shoulder) is scheduled to make a rehab appearance Tuesday for Single-A Charleston.

Impact McKay will move his rehab assignment up a rung on the minor-league ladder after he made his first two appearances of 2022 with the Rays' rookie-level Florida Complex League affiliate last week. He covered 2.2 innings in those outings, giving up an earned run on four hits and one walk while striking out three. The lefty is expected to need most of the 30-day rehab window to get stretched back out after he missed most of the 2020 and 2021 campaigns while recovering from injuries, and once he's activated from the 60-day injured list, McKay is likely to be optioned to Triple-A Durham.

Starts up rehab assigment McKay (shoulder) began a rehab assignment with the Rays' rookie-level Florida Complex League affiliate last Saturday and has given up one earned run on four hits and one walk while...

Impact The 26-year-old has resided on the 60-day injured list all season after undergoing thoracic outlet syndrome surgery last November and then experiencing renewed shoulder soreness in spring training. Because McKay has been sidelined all season and for most of the 2020 and 2021 campaigns due to a previous shoulder surgery, he'll likely require most of the 30-day rehab window to get fully ramped up. The No. 2 overall pick in the 2017 first-year player draft is unlikely to join the Rays once his rehab window ends and is expected to be optioned to Triple-A Durham.

Set to throw Saturday McKay (shoulder) will throw in a Florida Complex League game Saturday, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Impact Nothing has been reported on McKay's status since he was shut down in April, but he has apparently made good progress behind the scenes and is ready to appear in a game situation. It's not clear what his next step will be after Saturday's appearance, but the time between this update and the next figures to be far shorter than it was between this one and the last.
