Brendan McKay was optioned after yesterday’s rough outing
It was not in ideal outcome in last night’s series opener against the Seattle Mariners. Rookie left-hander Brendan McKay allowed seven runs to score in just two innings of work.
But as we already know, in baseball, there is (usually) always tomorrow, and the Rays will try and get things back on track tonight with Diego Castillo on the hill as tonight’s opener.
In other news, Rays selected the contract of Hoby Milner to add a fresh arm to the 25 man team:
