Cleared for rehab assignment

Rays manager Kevin Cash said Wednesday that Lux (shoulder) is headed to Triple-A Durham to begin a rehab assignment, Ryan Bass of Rays.tv reports.

Analysis

Cash said that Lux will play a few games in a row to "see how it goes" before the team decides whether he's ready for activation from the 10-day injured list. Lux -- who is recovering from a right shoulder impingement -- is eligible to return at any time, so he should be ready for his season debut at some point next week if all goes well. The 28-year-old is poised to operate as Tampa Bay's primary second baseman.
