It’s has been a long road to recovery for Tampa Bay Rays prospect Brendan McKay, but McKay took a huge step in his recovery on Tuesday.
If you remember, McKay suffered a shoulder injury in August of 2020, which turned out to be a torn labrum. McKay missed the entire 2020 season and has yet to pitch in 2021, until Tuesday.
You might also remember McKay as a hitter, which is something he has done since the last time he pitched. However, after going 2-for-22 with Triple-A Durham this season, you begin to wonder if the Tampa Bay Rays might be done giving McKay at-bats.
