Tim Beckham‘s first full major league season was a source of excitement when he first came up as he delivered several huge hits off the Tampa Bay Rays’ bench. However, his performance waned in additional playing time, and then he went on the disabled list with a strained right hamstring. He was later optioned to Triple-A, where he has been playing regularly and waiting for another chance. That opportunity will begin today as the Rays have placed Asdrubal Cabrera on the DL (ironically, with the same injury) and called up Beckham.
