Two scoreless efforts since return Fairbanks has two scoreless, one-inning appearances during which he's posted a 4:1 K:BB since returning from a stint on the 10-day injured list due to a shoulder issue.

Impact The most recent of the two outings came Sunday, when Fairbanks earned his fourth hold in a win over the Athletics. The right-hander should continue seeing steady work in the later innings now that he's apparently back to full health, and given his high-90s fastball, some save opportunities could certainly be in play as well.

Reinstated from 10-day IL Fairbanks (shoulder) was reinstated from the 10-day injured list Wednesday, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Impact Fairbanks had been sidelined since April 9 due to a right rotator cuff strain, but he threw a 12-to-14-pitch simulated inning Monday. Fairbanks could be the favorite for save chances in the near future since Diego Castillo (groin) was placed on the 10-day injured list in a corresponding move.

Simulated game on tap Rays manager Kevin Cash said he expects Fairbanks (shoulder) to pitch in a simulated game Monday, Neil Solondz of the Rays Radio Network reports.

Impact Fairbanks' strained right shoulder apparently held up well while he threw in a live batting practice session Saturday, so he'll take the next step forward in the recovery process by pitching in a simulated game. If all goes well Monday, Fairbanks could be reinstated from the injured list by the middle of the week.

Impact Fairbanks apparently looked very good per Topkin, and if all goes well with the planned live session over the weekend, the right-hander will likely accompany the Rays on their West Coast road trip that begins Monday and then be activated at some point during the week. Fairbanks logged three appearances this season before suffering his strain, posting a 3.38 ERA and 1.88 WHIP across 2.2 innings.

Rehab game scheduled Fairbanks (shoulder) is slated to pitch in a minor-league game Thursday in Port Charlotte, Fla., Steve Carney of Sports Radio 620 WDAE reports.

Impact Fairbanks is one of three rehabbing Rays relievers expected to throw Thursday, with Collin McHugh (back) and Cody Reed (thumb) also included on the pitching schedule. The Rays will likely want to see Fairbanks pitch in at least one or two more rehab games at the alternate site or at a minor-league affiliate before potentially bringing him back from the 10-day injured list next week.

Closing in on return Fairbanks (shoulder) is close to returning, Steve Carney of Sports Radio 620 WDAE reports.

Impact Fairbanks has been out for two weeks with a strained right rotator cuff. He was initially expected to be completely shut down for two or three weeks, but he's evidently ahead of that schedule. The Rays still haven't provided a clear timeline for his return, however.
