Rays' Jeffrey Springs: Ruled out for rest of season
Tampa Bay Rays manager Kevin Cash said Tuesday that Jeffrey Springs (elbow) is feeling better but will not return from the 15-day injured list this season, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.Springs landed on the IL earlier this month with left elbow fatigue, roughly six weeks after he returned to the majors following a long rehab from Tommy John surgery.

Rays' Jeffrey Springs: Out with elbow fatigue
The Tampa Bay Rays placed Jeffrey Springs on the 15-day injured list Sunday due to left elbow fatigue.The left-hander lined up to take the mound early this week in Philadelphia, but he'll instead head to the IL due to the elbow issue.
