Smyly to start Sunday in return from DL
Smyly's six strikeouts 0:58 5/5/15: Drew Smyly strikes out six batters in as many innings, limiting the Red Sox to one run and two hits ARLINGTON -- Drew Smyly will be reinstated from the disabled list to start for the Rays on Sunday against the Rangers at Globe Life Park.
Smyly, who has been on the DL with a torn left labrum since May 9, threw a bullpen session Friday, and the left-hander reported that everything went well.
"We're excited to have him back," Rays manager Kevin Cash said Friday. "Drew, it's been a long season for him, just like [outfielder] Desmond [Jennings]. But we know that if these guys are right, they're very capable of providing a very big boost."
