Rays place Margot on IL with a right elbow injury
Written by I Dig SportsThe Tampa Bay Rays placed outfielder Manuel Margot on the 10-day injured list Tuesday with an elbow injury and recalled second baseman Jonathan Aranda from Triple-A Durham.
Margot has been diagnosed with loose bodies in his right elbow. He is set to undergo surgery Wednesday, according to the Tampa Bay Times, but a return this season remains possible.
Margot, 28, is batting .249 with three home runs and 30 RBIs in 85 games this season. He is a career .254 hitter over eight seasons with the San Diego Padres (2016-19) and Rays in 774 career games.
Aranda, 25, went 3-for-15 in four games with the Rays earlier this season. In 36 major league games over two seasons for Tampa Bay, he is 18-for-93 (.194) with two home runs and eight RBIs.
