The Rays called up catcher Alex Jackson from Triple-A Durham and activated outfielder Jonny DeLuca off the injured list. Catcher Rene Pinto and utility player Niko Goodrum were optioned to Durham. To create room on the 40-man roster, right-hander Colby White was designated for assignment.
Jackson was hitting .282 with seven home runs in Triple A. Pinto, who the Rays went into the season believing would be their everyday catcher, was hitting only .214 and lost time to Ben Rortvedt over the last few weeks.
