Quick injury updates
By Roch Kubatko
Reliever Jim Johnson threw in the bullpen today and pronounced himself ready to pitch.
"Everything went fine," he said."My arm feels good. I'll be in there."
Johnson had some swelling in his right elbow caused by a slight muscle strain.
"It's something I haven't really had before," he said. "It's just muscular, nothing with a ligament. The meds and ice worked. Pretty much Advil and ice. So we're good."
Outfielder Felix Pie will attempt to throw today and is available to pinch-run again.
Pie said his left shoulder feels "much better," but he might need one more day off before returning to the lineup.
Here's Tampa Bay's lineup:
Bartlett SS
Crawford LF
Zobrist 2B
Longoria 3B
Pena 1B
Upton CF
Burrell DH
Kapler RF
Shoppach C
Niemann RHP
