Rays call up catcher Wilson from Triple-A Durham

ST. PETERSBURG -- The Rays have called up catcher Bobby Wilson from Triple-A Durham to fill the vacant roster spot left behind after outfielder David DeJesus was traded to the Angels on Tuesday.

Wilson played in 24 games with the Rays this season -- 16 starts at catcher -- has batted .145 with four RBIs. The team posted an ERA of 2.85 when he was behind the plate, which would be the eighth-lowest catcher's ERA in the league, if he qualified.
