Rays placed RHP Zack Littell on the 15-day injured list, retroactive to August 15, with right shoulder fatigue.
It’s a tough break for fantasy managers as Littell was slated to take the ball on Tuesday against the Athletics, but that’s no longer happening. The 28-year-old righty has rebounded with four straight quality outings since hitting a rough patch in July. Nothing official from the Rays, but given the injury designation, it’s easy to envision him being back by the start of September.
