The Rays are hoping that Matt Moore (elbow) will be ready to rejoin the rotation by next weekend. They were originally hoping to get him back this weekend, but Moore has been pushed back after feeling some discomfort while throwing his changeup during a Wednesday bullpen session. Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times notes that the club is "confident" the soreness "won't lead to a long delay." Moore will play catch Sunday before being re-evaluated.
