Hideki Matsui is expected to join the Rays this week, perhaps for the weekend series against the Red Sox.
Matsui has just two hits in 18 at-bats for Triple-A Durham, but the Rays are evidently pleased with how he’s looked. He’ll give manager Joe Maddon another option in left field while Desmond Jennings (knee) is out and could also see the occasional start in the DH slot.
