Strained hamstring sends Guyer to 15-day DL

MINNEAPOLIS -- Brandon Guyer has been placed on the 15-day disabled list on Sunday, retroactive to Saturday, with a strained left hamstring.

The Rays have recalled infielder Nick Franklin from Triple-A Durham to take his spot on the roster.

Guyer, who is hitting .271 with six home runs and 14 RBIs, said he began to feel a problem on the first day of the road trip on Monday in Kansas City.

After running out a ground ball to end Friday night's game, Guyer said he felt like playing further might lead to a tear or a pull.
