Rays' Edwin Uceta Undergoes MRI for Shoulder Setback, Opening Day in Doubt

Tampa Bay Rays pitcher Edwin Uceta underwent an MRI on his injured right shoulder Thursday after experiencing a setback while playing catch. He is scheduled to see a doctor Friday. The injury puts his availability for Opening Day in doubt, as it will take time to ramp up even without structural damage. If healthy, Uceta is expected to be a contender for saves in the Rays' bullpen.
