Uh oh...

 

The Tampa Bay Devil Rays have optioned outfielder Elijah Dukes to the minor leagues and placed him on the temporary inactive list. The Rays also selected veteran outfielder Dustan Mohr from Durham (AAA) and transferred outfielder Rocco Baldelli from the 15-day disabled list to the 60-day DL.


Dukes, 22, was batting .190 (35-184) with 10 HR and 21 RBI in 52 games with the Rays. He is tied for the major league lead in home runs among rookies and ranked second with 33 walks. He was selected by the Rays in the third round of the 2002 June Draft out of Hillsborough High School in Tampa.
