I can't find a source on this anywhere, either. TB website suggests they called up Chris Singleton yesterday after they put Munson on the DL. Any links on this?..
Devil Rays recalled outfielder Joey Gathright from Triple-A Durham.
Does this mean Chris Singleton won't get to play after all? What a disappointment that would be. It would be for the best if Gathright takes over as the team's starting center fielder, even if he's not going to produce quite as well as Damon Hollins has to this point. Unfortunately, that would probably mean fewer at-bats for Jonny Gomes as well as Hollins. Gathright should be picked up immediately in AL-only leagues. Mixed leaguers will want to wait and see how much he plays.

Jul 3 The Tampa Bay Devil Rays placed infielder Alex Gonzalez on the 15-day disabled list with a neck injury and recalled Gathright from Triple-A Durham on Sunday. At Durham, the speedy outfielder was batting .305 with a .388 on-base percentage, 31 steals and 46 runs scored in 58 games.
Advice: There isn't a starting job awaiting Gathright with the Rays, but he has some fantasy value because of his basestealing ability. He stole six bases in 19 games with the Rays last season, and three more in six games this season. Nine steals in 25 games and he's not a starter. He did bat .350 in 20 at-bats for Tampa Bay earlier this season.
