Desmond Jennings (knee) is not in Wednesday’s lineup.

Jennings has now missed two straight games since making an early exit Sunday with a left knee sprain. He’s confident that he’ll be able to avoid the disabled list, but the injury is clearly still bothering him. Matt Joyce will play left field Wednesday night against the Yankees with Ben Zobrist covering right. Will Rhymes is starting at second base and Sean Rodriguez is at third.

Will Rhymes will start at third base and bat seventh Wednesday night against the Mariners.

Evan Longoria is expected to miss 6-8 weeks with a partial tear of his left hamstring, so Rays manager Joe Maddon will use a mix-and-match approach at third base. Rhymes, Elliot Johnson, Sean Rodriguez and Jeff Keppinger all figure to draw starts. It’s a situation to avoid for fantasy owners.

Rays signed INF Will Rhymes to a minor league contract.

The deal includes a spring training invite. Rhymes, who turns 29 in April, was non-tendered by the Tigers in December after batting just .235/.323/.271 with three doubles and a .594 OPS over 99 plate appearances with the big club last season. He has some speed and good plate discipline, so the Rays could have some use for him.
