Arozarena (quad) isn't in the Rays' lineup Saturday against the Blue Jays, Steve Carney of StPeteNine.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
After leaving Friday's game early due to right quad tightness, Arozarena will be held out of Saturday's contest as he continues to recover. While Arozarena rests, Harold Ramirez will start in left field and bat second. Arozarena should be able to return to the lineup soon, as Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports that he'll be available off the bench.

Arozarena was lifted from Friday's game against the Blue Jays with right quad tightness, Ryan Bass of Bally Sports Sun reports.
EDGE Analysis
Arozarena let up a bit while rounding third base in the bottom of the first inning, though he managed to gut it out until being replaced by Manuel Margot before the top of the fifth. Arozarena finished the night 1-for-2 with a double and a run scored. Consider him day-to-day leading into the remainder of the Rays' three-game weekend series versus Toronto.

Arozarena went 1-for-4 with a two-run homer in Tuesday's 6-2 win over the Angels.
EDGE Analysis
The 28-year-old outfielder capitalized on a center-cut meatball from Patrick Sandoval, launching a two-run blast to give Tampa Bay an early lead in the first inning. After a tepid start to September, Arozarena has now hit safely in seven of the last eight games, going 11-for-34 (.324) during that stretch with two home runs, five RBI and four runs. However, his 30.6 percent strikeout rate and 5.6 percent walk rate in that same span suggest he isn't quite locked in at the plate.

Arozarena went 2-for-5 with a solo homer in Wednesday's 5-4 victory over the Twins.
EDGE Analysis
Arozarena came up huge for the Rays on Wednesday, launching a 448-foot home run with two outs in the top of the ninth to give the team a 5-4 lead. It was the outfielder's 22nd long ball of the season but his first since Aug. 29. Arozarena's batting just .217 in September with three RBI and four runs scored, though he's now hit safely in three straight.

Arozarena is out of the lineup Sunday against the Mariners.
EDGE Analysis
This is presumably just a routine breather for Arozarena, who went 1-for-8 with a double, four walks and a run scored over the first three games of the four-game set. Luke Raley, Jose Siri and Josh Lowe will start across the outfield for the Rays in Sunday's series finale.

Arozarena went 1-for-3 with a walk, two RBI and two stolen bases in Wednesday's 3-0 extra-inning win over the Marlins.
EDGE Analysis
Arozarena enjoyed a big 10th inning, knocking in a pair of runs with a one-out single and subsequently stealing both second and third base. The star outfielder has swiped five bags over his past three games to reach 20 thefts on the campaign. He's already at 21 homers, so he's now logged three consecutive 20/20 seasons, becoming the first player in major-league history to accomplish that across his first three full campaigns in the big leagues.

Arozarena went 1-for-3 with a two-run homer and an additional run scored while drawing two walks in Tuesday's victory over the Marlins.
EDGE Analysis
Arozarena's seventh-inning, two-run homer extended the Tampa Bay lead to 7-2. The All-Star outfielder has now hit safely in seven of his last eight games, going 10-for-29 with a 1.163 OPS, three home runs, six RBI, three steals and an incredible 13 runs scored during that stretch.

Arozarena went 2-for-4 with three stolen bases and three runs scored in Sunday's 7-4 win over the Yankees.
EDGE Analysis
Arozarena posted his first three-steal game and second multi-steal game this season to bring him up to 18 thefts on the year. Arozarena was struggling badly post All-Star break through the rest of July, but Sunday was a continuation of a strong month at the plate for the 28-year-old. Through 23 games in August, he's slashing .276/.390/.425 with three homers, 10 RBI, 22 runs, six steals and a 14:24 BB:K and has hit safely in six of his last seven games while scoring 11 times over that latter span.

Arozarena went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 6-5 extra-inning win over the Rockies.
EDGE Analysis
The 28-year-old outfielder opened the scoring in the third inning by lofting an Austin Gomber changeup over the wall in left field. Arozarena was in a deep slump coming out of the All-Star break, but he could be flipping the switch as the playoff race heats up. Over his last 15 games, he's slashing .317/.423/.467, and five of his nine RBI over that stretch have come in the last three contests. Wednesday's long ball also gave him exactly 20 for the third straight season, and the Rays have 34 games left on the schedule for him to establish a new career high.

Arozarena went 3-for-6 with a home run, three total runs and two total RBI in an 18-4 rout of the Angels in the nightcap of Saturday's doubleheader.
EDGE Analysis
Arozarena went a quiet 0-for-4 in the matinee, though he added a walk and scored a run. He made much more noise in Game 2, smashing a 427-foot solo shot in the seventh inning as one of his three hits. Arozarena hadn't homered since Aug. 1 -- a span of 15 games -- coming into the contest, though he had reached base via hit or walk in all but two games during that stretch.
