ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — Tampa Bay Rays starting pitcher Ryan Pepiot has been placed on the 15-day injured list with a bruised lower left leg. The right-hander departed his start Sunday after getting hit on his calf by a 107.5 mph line drive off the bat of the New York Mets' Starling Marte. Both Pepiot and Rays manager Kevin Cash believe it will be short-term injury. Pepiot hopes to throw off a mound this weekend or early next week. Right-hander Taj Bradley was reinstated from the 15-day IL and will start Friday night against the New York Yankees after being out all season with a right pectoral strain.
