Mangum went 1-for-4 with a stolen base Sunday against the Rangers.
EDGE Analysis
Mangum has started six of eight games since being recalled to the majors March 29. He's earned the playing time by maintaining a five-game hitting streak, also chipping in four RBI, three runs scored and four stolen bases in that span. Mangum isn't likely to be much of a power contributor, but he's shown the ability to chip in everywhere else on the box score.

Mangum went 3-for-4 with a double, a steal, two RBI and two runs in Tuesday's win over the Pirates.
EDGE Analysis
Mangum is on a torrid stretch at the plate in his last two games, going 7-for-8 with four RBI and three runs while adding three steals. The 29-year-old hit .305/.351/.431 at Triple-A Durham the last two seasons and is making an early statement that he belongs in the show.

Mangum went 4-for-4 with two RBI and two stolen bases in Monday's 6-1 win over Pittsburgh.
EDGE Analysis
Mangum tallied his first major-league RBI with a two-run single in the fourth inning, also adding two steals in the victory. The switch-hitting outfielder has made his way onto Tampa Bay's roster due to Josh Lowe (oblique) being sidelined, and Monday's effort could earn him additional reps in the outfield while Lowe is on the shelf.

The Rays recalled Mangum from Triple-A Durham on Saturday, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
At 29 years old, Mangum will finally get a chance to make his MLB debut following Josh Lowe's (oblique) move to the injured list. Mangum spent all of last season in Triple-A, slashing .317/.357/.442 with 56 RBI and 20 stolen bases across 428 plate appearances. He'll provide the Rays with some additional outfield depth until Lowe returns.

The Rays optioned Mangum to Triple-A Durham on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Along with Kameron Misner and Chandler Simpson, Mangum was one of three players vying for a backup outfield role that was sent to the minors Wednesday. The 29-year-old Mangum is still waiting to make his MLB debut, but the Rays thought highly enough of him to protect him from the Rule 5 Draft and add him to the 40-man roster this winter after he slashed .317/.357/.442 with six home runs and 20 stolen bases over 428 plate appearances for Durham last season.
