Scholtens will operate in a bulk-relief role in Sunday's series finale against the Twins, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
The Rays will opt to use Griffin Jax as the opening pitcher for the contest, with Jax likely to work the first inning or two before turning the ball over to Scholtens. Scholtens made his first start of the season against the Reds this past Monday, when he took the loss after allowing five runs while striking out six across 5.2 innings without issuing a walk. The 32-year-old right-hander has a 2.93 ERA, 0.98 WHIP and 13:3 K:BB across 15.1 innings with Tampa Bay this season.
