The Tampa Bay Rays have placed opening day starter Zach Eflin on the 15-day injured list with lower back inflammation. Eflin has struggled this year after a strong first season with Tampa Bay in 2023, going 3-4 with a 4.12 ERA in 10 starts.
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — The Tampa Bay Rays placed opening day starter Zach Eflin on the 15-day injured list with lower back inflammation before Monday night’s game against Boston.
“Doesn’t feel great,” Eflin said. “It’s uncomfortable. Kind of happened last year and I felt good after about eight days.” “From what I’ve gathered and everything else, the way people come back from obliques there’s never one person that says they feel great and they don’t feel a thing anymore,” Lowe said. “There’s going to be times when I’m sore. There’s going to be swings I don’t feel great. But what I gathered from the last doctor’s visit is that it’s just part of the process.”
“Bruising is pretty much gone,” Pepiot said. “Got a good little bump on the bone I don’t think is going away, but I feel good.”
