ST. PETERSBURG -- The Rays designated left-hander Dana Eveland for assignment on Wednesday to make room on the 40-man roster for outfielder Jaff Decker, who they selected from Triple-A Durham.
A need for outfield help arose Tuesday night when Steven Souza Jr. had to leave the game against the Mariners with left hip soreness after diving for a ball in right field.
X-rays were negative on Souza, but he was sore on Wednesday and wasn't sure about his status going forward.
"Right now it just feels sore," Souza said. "In that specific moment [of the injury] it felt like I literally had no control of where it was going.
