Whitley was recalled from Triple-A Durham on Saturday, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

The 27-year-old just missed out on a rotation spot this spring, but with Jake Odorizzi (hamstring) landing on the disabled list, Whitley will get another shot at the major-league level. He has plenty of starting experience, so he seems like a good bet to make some spot starts until Odorizzi returns.
