Jake Mangum Injury: Not close to return

Rays manager Kevin Cash said Wednesday that Mangum (groin) will be evaluated the week of May 19 and could head out on a rehab assignment soon thereafter, MLB.com reports.

Mangum has been sidelined since April 24 due to a left groin strain, and he doesn't seem to have made much noteworthy progress in his recovery in the ensuing two weeks. The rookie outfielder doesn't look like he'll be a realistic candidate to return from the injured list until late May in a best-case scenario.
