Wander Franco on Track to Return to Rays Lineup This Week

The Tampa Bay Rays have an excellent track record of making the most with the least, but this season is testing their limits. Five of their regular starters are on the injured list, including phenom Wander Franco.

MLB’s former top prospect was enjoying success in his first full season in the bigs before a quad injury sidelined him at the end of May. Franco is progressing on his rehab assignment and should re-join the Rays Sunday against the Pittsburgh Pirates or Tuesday versus the Milwaukee Brewers.

Wander Franco was 2-for-4 with a run scored and an RBI as the DH tonight for AAA @DurhamBulls in Jacksonville.
