MINNEAPOLIS — Infielder Jose Caballero returned to the Rays lineup Tuesday, playing for the first time since leaving Friday’s game in Atlanta with flu-like symptoms from a bug going around the clubhouse.
“I feel good,” he said.
Caballero had planned to return to action Sunday, but the combination of the heat and lingering effects of being dehydrated proved to be too much as he was scratched from the lineup and ended up receiving IV fluids.
“I think he’s good to go,” manager Kevin Cash said before Tuesday’s game, which started on time despite an onerous weather forecast.
