WASHINGTON -- Jake Bauers is coming to The Show.
After Wednesday afternoon's 11-2 loss to the Nationals, the Rays announced that they would recall the power-hitting first baseman from Triple-A Durham prior to Thursday's game.
A corresponding move will take place prior to Thursday's game against the Mariners at Tropicana Field.
Bauers, 22, is the Rays' No. 5 prospect according to MLB Pipeline, and he is having a solid season for the Bulls. In 52 games, he is hitting .279/.358/.426 with five homers and 24 RBIs.
