HBT: Rays activate Upton from disabled list

As expected the Rays have activated B.J. Upton from the disabled list and the center fielder will make his season debut tonight after sitting out the first 13 games with a back injury.

Upton, who suffered the injury in a March 14 collision with Desmond Jennings, went just 3-for-21 (.143) during a seven game minor-league rehab assignment.

Jennings has filled in for Upton as the everyday center fielder, but now he?ll shift back to left field and Matt Joyce will move to right field with Ben Zobrist likely seeing more time as a second baseman.

Stephen Vogt, a 27-year-old career minor leaguer who went 0-for-13 in his first taste of the majors, was optioned back to the minors to make room for Upton.
