Corey Kluber - Strong start in loss Kluber (3-3) took the loss Tuesday against the Yankees, allowing two unearned runs on four hits, a hit batsman and a walk while striking out three in six innings.
Impact Kluber held the Yankees hitless through the first three innings but two Tampa Bay errors led to his unearned runs in the fourth inning. The veteran has had two strong outings against the Yankees this season, allowing just one earned run in 12 innings. Over his last six starts the 36-year-old has a 2.53 ERA and a 27:4 K:BB in 32 innings.

Rays' Mike Zunino 'not turning the corner,' going for further testing Notes | And there could be an injury issue pending with a pitcher, as Ralph Garza Jr. is in New York on the taxi squad.
JUNE 14, 2022 • TAMPABAY.COM
Mike Zunino - Heading for MRI Zunino isn't making the desired progress in his recovery from a left shoulder injury and will undergo an MRI, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
Impact Zunino hit the injured list Friday, meaning he'd be eligible to return next Monday, but this latest update means it's seemingly unlikely that he'll be able to do so. Exactly when he's expected back should become clearer once the results of his MRI are known. Francisco Mejia could wind up spending more time than expected as the team's primary catcher.

Jonathan Aranda - Bat looks ready Aranda is batting .326/.404/.521 with nine homers, three steals and a 26:49 BB:K through 57 games for Triple-A Durham.
Impact With Brandon Lowe hurt and Vidal Brujan struggling at the dish, it's a little surprising Aranda hasn't gotten the call to Tampa yet. All he's done in Triple-A is essentially replicate his fine work in Double-A from last season (.325/.410/.540). Of course, his defense is not great and probably never will be, which may be all the difference for the Rays, but at least Aranda offers some versatility by virtue of his experience -- he's played first, second and third this year, and left field previously. As an excellent hitter with no clear position, he's an obvious fit for the DH slot.
JUNE 14, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Josh Lowe - Trimming whiffs recently Lowe has struck out only twice in his last six games for Triple-A Durham -- a span in which he's hit .381, walked six times and stolen two bases.
Impact He recently went four straight games without striking out -- the first time he's done that all season. Before that stretch, Lowe had struck out at least once in 26 of 27 games since his demotion to Triple-A. In June as a whole, Lowe has hit .300/.429/.475 with a homer, three steals and nearly as many walks as strikeouts, so it certainly looks like he's turning the corner with his approach at the plate after struggling mightily to begin the year.

Brett Phillips - Gets Tuesday off Phillips is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Yankees, Neil Solondz of the Rays Radio Network reports.
Impact Phillips will see his streak of four consecutive starts come to an end while the Rays roll out an outfield of Randy Arozarena, Kevin Kiermaier and Manuel Margot in the series opener in New York. Through 10 games in June, Phillips has managed only one hit in 25 at-bats while striking out 13 times.
JUNE 14, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Vidal Bruján - Hits bench Tuesday Brujan is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Yankees, Neil Solondz of the Rays Radio Network reports.
Impact Brujan will give way to Isaac Paredes at the keystone after starting in each of the Rays' last six games while going 5-for-22 with a home run, a double, a stolen base and five RBI. Though the 24-year-old switch hitter is slowly starting to settle in at the plate, he's still maintaining a poor .157/.206/.236 slash line at the big-league level in 2022.

Luis Patiño - Makes second rehab start Patino (oblique) completed his second rehab start Saturday with the Rays' rookie-level Florida Complex League affiliate, covering two scoreless innings and striking out five while...
Impact Patino upped his pitch count to 29 in the outing and will now likely advance to one of the Rays' higher-level affiliates to make at least two more rehab starts before potentially coming off the 60-day injured list. The 22-year-old right-hander has been on the shelf since straining his oblique in his season debut with the Rays on April 11.

Wander Franco - Set to begin agility work Rays manager Kevin Cash said Franco (quadriceps) is scheduled to begin agility work Monday, Brian Hall of MLB.com reports.
Impact A few days earlier, Cash told Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times that he didn't anticipate Franco would be ready to return from the 10-day injured list this week, so fantasy managers should continue to keep the 21-year-old on their reserve list for now. The impending agility work will mark Franco's first activity since he strained his right quad while running the bases in a May 30 game. Given Franco's long-term importance to the franchise, the Rays may want him to first test his quad in a brief minor-league rehab assignment before activating him from the IL.
