Randy Arozarena - Four hits, one steal in win Arozarena went 4-for-5 with a double, two RBI and a stolen base in Thursday's 6-2 win over the Tigers.
Impact Arozarena went 2-for-19 in his previous six games before doubling that hit total in one night Thursday. He knocked in the Rays' last two runs of the game with a seventh-inning single and a ninth-inning double. The outfielder's recent slump put a sour end to an otherwise solid July, and he's now slashing .258/.318/421 with 12 home runs, a career-high 21 stolen bases, 49 RBI and 44 runs scored through 422 plate appearances.

Brandon Lowe - Crushes homer in win Lowe went 3-for-5 with a home run and three RBI in Thursday's 6-2 win over the Tigers.
Impact Lowe has multiple hits in three of his last four games, going 7-for-16 in that span. He was a problem for Tigers starter Drew Hutchison on Thursday -- Lowe took the veteran pitcher deep for a two-run blast in the third inning and added an RBI single in the fourth. The 28-year-old infielder is up to a .253/.321/.466 slash line with eight long balls, 19 RBI, 27 runs scored and a stolen base through 193 plate appearances. Lowe has settled in as a strong-side platoon option at second base since returning from a back injury in mid-July.

Jeffrey Springs - Cruises to win in Detroit Springs (4-3) allowed two unearned runs on four hits and struck out six over six innings to earn the win Thursday over the Tigers.
Impact Springs had to work around a pair of errors from Yandy Diaz in the third inning, which ultimately allowed two runs to score. Other than that, Springs was sharp in his longest start since June 24. The southpaw threw 60 of 85 pitches for strikes. For the season, he has a 2.50 ERA, 1.08 WHIP and 83:16 K:BB across 22 outings (14 starts), though he's allowed 10 runs (seven earned) through 19.1 innings in his last four appearances. Springs is tentatively lined up for a tough road start in Milwaukee next week.

Luke Raley - On bench versus righty Raley is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Tigers, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
Impact The lefty-hitting Raley will take a seat against a right-hander (Drew Hutchison), marking the third time in four games he's been excluded from the lineup. Though Raley appeared poised to get regular playing time in the outfield when the Rays moved Josh Lowe and Brett Phillips off the active roster, the trade-deadline pickups of David Peralta and Jose Siri may result in Raley settling into more of a part-time role.

Jimmy Yacabonis - Claimed by Tampa Bay Yacabonis was claimed off waivers by the Rays on Thursday, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
Impact Yacabonis was sidelined for the second half of July with a groin strain, but he was activated from the injured list and designated for assignment by the Marlins over the weekend. The right-hander has appeared in nine games this season and has a 6.75 ERA and 15:5 K:BB across 9.1 innings.

René Pinto - Not in Thursday's lineup Pinto isn't starting Thursday against the Tigers, Neil Solondz of the Rays Radio Network reports.
Impact Pinto went 1-for-3 with a strikeout Wednesday against the Blue Jays and will take a seat for the second time in the last three games. Christian Bethancourt will take over behind the plate and bat ninth.

David Peralta - First hits in Tampa Bay Peralta went 2-for-4 with an RBI on Wednesday against the Blue Jays.
Impact Peralta collected his first hit as a Ray with a single in the fourth inning before tallying an RBI knock in the sixth frame. He's hit sixth and fifth in the order in each of his first two appearances with the club, and was notably included in the lineup with a lefty starter on the mound Wednesday. Given the depleted state of Tampa Bay's outfield, Peralta should remain a near everyday player for the foreseeable future. Across 321 plate appearances on the season, he has maintained a .249/.315/.453 line.

Jose Siri - Swipes seventh bag Siri went 1-for-4 with a run scored and a stolen base in Wednesday's 3-2 win over the Blue Jays.
Impact The former Astro struck out three times but he made his one successful plate appearance count, stealing second base after a leadoff single in the sixth inning and then coming home with the winning run on a David Peralta knock. Siri has started two straight games in center field since being acquired by Tampa Bay, but he's gone 1-for-7 with five Ks and figured to fall into a bench role once Manuel Margot (knee) is ready to come off the injured list -- something that's on track to happen later this month.

Jason Adam - Nails down fifth save Adam struck out two in a perfect ninth inning Wednesday to record his fifth save of the season in a 3-2 win over the Blue Jays.
Impact The 30-year-old right-hander continues to be a key member of the Rays' late-inning committee. Adam has picked up three saves and five holds in 13 appearances since the beginning of July while being scored upon only once in that stretch, posting a 0.75 ERA, 0.42 WHIP and 18:0 K:BB over his last 12 innings.

Ryan Yarbrough - Sharp as bulk reliever Yarbrough didn't factor into then decision in Wednesday's 3-2 win over the Blue Jays, tossing four innings of relief and allowing one run on one hit and one walk with two strikeout...
Impact Jalen Beeks got the nod as the opener before Yarbrough entered the game in the second inning, and aside from a solo shot by Teoscar Hernandez in the fourth, the lefty shut down a potent Toronto offense completely. Yarbrough has been much improved since rejoining the Rays' staff just before the All-Star break, posting a 3.26 ERA, 0.98 WHIP and 16:3 K:BB through 19.1 innings over his last four appearances (two starts), but he has yet to get into the win column since his return to the majors.
