AnalysisAfter being dealt to Tampa Bay from Houston on June 13, Whitley got into five big-league games and allowed 10 runs (eight earned) while posting a 4:2 K:BB over 4.2 innings. All of the runs against him came over his last two outings, one of which was a six-run blow-up against Detroit during which he didn't retire a batter. Whitley's removal from the roster made room for Tampa Bay to call up lefty reliever
Joe Rock from Triple-A Durham.
