McGee (elbow) was activated from the DL on Thursday night, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports. Reports surfaced earlier in the day suggesting McGee would return to the team over the weekend, but the Rays will not wait that long, as McGee will rejoin the club after throwing a scoreless inning in his final Triple-A rehab appearance. His role with Tampa Bay is not immediately clear, as Brad Boxberger appears to be fitting in comfortably as the closer. As a result, McGee could be headed for a set-up role. In a corresponding move, the Rays optioned Matt Andriese to Triple-A Durham to free up a spot on the 25-man roster.
