Steven Souza (hip) out on Friday night for Tampa Bay
Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Steven Souza (hip) is not starting on Friday night against the Texas Rangers.
What It Means:
Souza avoided any structural damage during an awkward slide attempt on Wednesday, but he's still expected to miss a little time. The 28-year-old outfielder is slashing .271/.369/.514 with 20 taters and 60 RBI in 90 games this season. Shane Peterson is starting in right field and batting eighth versus Rangers right-hander Yu Darvish for Friday's series opener.
For the rest of the season, numberFire's models project Souza to record a .260 batting average with 10 homers and 34 RBI in 258 plate appearances over the rest of the year.
