Souza (hand) will not start Monday, but he has no damage to the tendon in his right pinky and should avoid a disabled list stint, Roger Mooney of the Tampa Tribune reports.
Analysis:
Souza said he is available to pinch-run or play defense Monday night, but he has not swung a bat since suffering the injury. He's been running cold at the plate of late, going 6-for-44 with 22 strikeouts (.136) over the last 14 days. Brandon Guyer will handle right field for the Rays until Souza is cleared to rejoin the starting lineup.
