Rays place Manuel Margot on 10-day injured list with hamstring strain The outfielder is having a career year, batting .348 with three HRs and 21 RBI
MAY 15, 2022 • TAMPABAY.COM
Out with hamstring strain Margot was placed on the 10-day injured list with a right hamstring strain Sunday, Neil Solondz of the Rays Radio Network reports.
Impact This couldn't have come at a worse time for Margot, who is in the midst of a potential career year. He is hitting .348 with a .348 xBA, three home runs, five steals and career-best marks in BB% (8.8) and K% (12.7). The Rays called up reliever Ralph Garza in a corresponding move, so Harold Ramirez and Vidal Brujan should see an uptick in playing time in the short term.

Expected to return to lineup Friday Margot (hamstring), who isn't starting Wednesday against the Angels, is expected to return to the lineup Friday against the Blue Jays, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
Impact Manager Kevin Cash said Margot is feeling better Wednesday and likely could have started against the Angels, but he'll instead be held out for a second consecutive game due to right hamstring discomfort. It's possible Margot will be available off the bench if necessary, and he'll likely be back in the starting nine for Friday's series opener at home against the Blue Jays.

Whether Margot is available off the bench remains to be seen, but Brett Phillips will take his place in right field and bat ninth in Wednesday's series finale.
