Impact Activated from the COVID-19 injured list earlier in the day, Arozarena was reinserted back into the leadoff spot and helped set the table with a productive night.

Impact Arozarena has been on the COVID-19 list since Friday due to being a close contact with someone who tested positive for the virus. Given that he's able to return after missing just three games, it appears that he didn't test positive himself. Left-hander Ryan Yarbrough (undisclosed), who was scheduled to start Wednesday, was moved to the COVID-19 IL in a corresponding roster move.

Could be back Tuesday Rays manager Kevin Cash indicated that Arozarena could be ready to return from the COVID-19 injured list as soon as Tuesday's game against the Red Sox, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay...

Impact Arozarena was placed on the IL on Friday, but because he was identified as a close contact of an infected person and didn't test positive for the coronavirus himself, he could be cleared to return earlier than most players who typically enter MLB's health and safety protocols. The outfielder previously tested positive for the virus in July 2020, but he isn't considered at risk of being infected again and hasn't shown any symptoms of the virus since being deactivated.

Out due to close contact Arozarena hit the COVID-19 injured list Friday after being deemed a close contact of someone who tested positive for the virus, Neil Solondz of the Rays Radio Network reports.

Impact Arozarena has been on a tear, hitting .404 with six homers over his last 14 games. He at least hasn't tested positive for the virus himself thus far, so he may not be in line for a long absence, but he'll be sidelined for at least a few days. Jordan Luplow was recalled in a corresponding move and could spend some time in the outfield in his absence, though the Rays have a very flexible roster and could cover for Arozarena in a number of ways.

Impact Arozarena has been absolutely raking in his last 14 games, hitting .404 with five doubles, six home runs and 11 RBI since July 19. After Wednesday's performance, he boasts a .268/.344/.458 slash line with 16 home runs and 20 doubles this season. The 2020 postseason standout must smell October, as he's playing a pivotal role in the playoff-bound Rays' offense after an unspectacular first half of the season.
