Jonny DeLuca News: Returns from IL

The Rays activated DeLuca (shoulder) from the 60-day injured list Friday.

DeLuca had been on the shelf since April 8 due to a right shoulder strain, an injury that was initially expected to sideline him for 2-to-4 weeks before he suffered multiple setbacks. The 26-year-old's return will bump right-hander Jacob Waguespack off the 40-man roster, while infielder Ha-Seong Kim (back) heads to the IL to clear room on the 26-man active roster for DeLuca. Now that he's healthy again, the right-handed-hitting DeLuca will likely fill a short-side platoon role in the Tampa Bay outfield.
