Scouting Report: Luke Fox

Summary

Luke Fox (note: appears to be Gavin Lux based on provided content) was pulled off his rehab assignment by the Rays due to a left shoulder injury. He has yet to make his team debut after being acquired from the Reds in the offseason as their intended primary second baseman. Lux has battled multiple injuries over recent months including oblique discomfort, right shoulder impingement, and a left ankle injury. He appeared in 21 Triple-A games hitting .200 with 1 HR across 90 plate appearances with 20 walks and 23 strikeouts. Imaging is scheduled and he is expected to be moved to the 60-day IL, with return eligibility in less than two weeks, though manager Kevin Cash indicated he will be out "for the foreseeable future." This timing is particularly problematic as Lux enters free agency next winter.
