Rays' Junior Caminero: Blasts two homers with Durham
Rotowire
Caminero went 4-for-5 with a double, two home runs and three RBI on Sunday with Triple-A Durham.
Caminero was sidelined for two weeks early in the season with a quad injury. In nine games since, he's gone 11-for-36 with seven extra-base hits while striking out at a 23.1 percent clip. The Rays have had a mediocre lineup, and Jonathan Aranda (finger) is nearing a return, but Caminero should still make his way to Tampa Bay at some point in the current campaign.
Triple-A Durham reinstated Caminero (quadricep) from its 7-day injured list ahead of Sunday's game against Lehigh Valley.
Caminero will make his return to the Triple-A lineup for the first time since March 31 after he injured his left quad in Durham's season-opening series. Before getting hurt, Caminero went 4-for-12 with a home run, two walks and one stolen base in three games with Durham. The 20-year-old will play on an everyday basis for Durham and will likely be the top option for a promotion if the Rays lose one of their regular infielders for any length of time down the road.
