Slated to receive injection Zunino (shoulder) will receive a Botox shot in an attempt to help in his recovery process, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
Impact Manager Kevin Cash said Thursday that it's possible Zunino is dealing with thoracic outlet syndrome, and the team will have to wait 3-to-6 days following the injection to see if it has an impact in his recovery. The backstop will presumably require more than the minimum of 10 days on the injured list, and a recovery timetable is unlikely to be known until the Rays see how Zunino responds to the injection.

Heading for MRI Zunino isn't making the desired progress in his recovery from a left shoulder injury and will undergo an MRI, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
Impact Zunino hit the injured list Friday, meaning he'd be eligible to return next Monday, but this latest update means it's seemingly unlikely that he'll be able to do so. Exactly when he's expected back should become clearer once the results of his MRI are known. Francisco Mejia could wind up spending more time than expected as the team's primary catcher.

Hits injured list Zunino (shoulder) was placed on the 10-day injured list Friday, Neil Solondz of the Rays Radio Network reports.
Impact Zunino had been dealing with an unspecified left shoulder issue in recent days, which may be linked to his back-to-back days off earlier this week or to his 2-for-24 showing over his last eight contests. His diagnosis has now been updated to left shoulder inflammation, an issue which will cost him at least 10 days. Whether or not he'll need a longer absence than that is not yet clear. Rene Pinto was called up to take his place on the roster and will back up Francisco Mejia behind the plate.

Nursing shoulder injury Zunino is managing a left shoulder injury and could be placed on the injured list, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
Impact The specifics and severity of the injury remain unknown, but Rene Pinto is joining the team in Minnesota on Friday for depth behind the plate. Zunino is 2-for-24 with nine strikeouts over his past eight contests, though it's unclear how much of a factor the shoulder issue has played in his recent struggles, Francisco Mejia should work as Tampa Bay's No. 1 backstop if Zunino indeed lands on the shelf.
JUNE 10, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Remains out of lineup Zunino isn't starting Wednesday's game against the Cardinals.
Impact Zunino went 1-for-6 with a home run, two RBI, a walk and two strikeouts over his last two games, and he'll be out of the lineup for a second consecutive matchup. Francisco Mejia will start behind the plate and bat seventh.
JUNE 8, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Day off Tuesday Zunino is not in the lineup Tuesday against St. Louis, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
Impact Zunino has started more than two games in a row just once this season, and that came back in late April. He started both weekend games against the White Sox, so it will be Francisco Mejia behind the plate Tuesday.
JUNE 7, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Goes yard Sunday Zunino went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run Sunday against the White Sox.
Impact Zunino took Lucas Giolito yard in the sixth inning to record his fifth homer of the campaign. He's collected only 17 hits in 112 at-bats this season, eight of which have gone for extra bases. That has translated to a disastrous .513 OPS, but Zunino still retains the primary duties behind the dish for the Rays.

Not in Friday's lineup Zunino isn't starting Friday against the White Sox, Neil Solondz of the Rays Radio Network reports.
Impact Zunino has alternated starts behind the dish recently, and he'll take a seat after going 1-for-4 in Thursday's win over Texas. Francisco Mejia will start at catcher and bat sixth.
