Matt Moore to make first start for the Rays in 15 months

It is not quite in stone yet — let’s call it ink with a bottle of white-out not far away — but this is the plan at this point.

The Rays announced today that Moore will make what is called his “fifth, and potentially final, rehab start” on Saturday for the Durham Bulls. If things go well, Moore will then replace Matt Andriese in the rotation which puts him on track to start the series finale against the Indians on July 1.

How certain are we that this is what is going to happen? If Moore had his way, he would be starting for the Rays on Saturday against the Red Sox.
