Left-hander Cody Reed is likely headed to the injured list after exiting in the eighth inning of the Rays¡¯ 13-6 win against the Orioles on Tuesday night in Baltimore.

Reed¡¯s outing began well enough, as he took the mound to begin the eighth and struck out Maikel Franco and Freddy Galvis on a combined nine pitches. But he then walked Ryan Mountcastle on four pitches and Chance Sisco on five, prompting a visit from Rays manager Kevin Cash and a trainer. Reed then left the game.

Cash said Reed felt something similar to an issue he has previously dealt with: numbness and weakness in his left hand that sidelined him after he joined Tampa Bay last August and again in late April.

Reed went on the 10-day injured list on April 20, retroactive to April 17, and returned two weeks later after receiving a Botox injection. He was reinstated on May 1, pitched a clean inning that day and made five more appearances without incident before the issue popped up again Tuesday at Oriole Park at Camden Yards.

¡°We can all imagine it's probably pretty tough to pitch and certainly command the baseball if you're not feeling your fingertips or your hand, and I think that's the case,¡± Cash said afterward.

Cash said he expects Reed will be evaluated by doctors and that he's likely to land on the IL. The Rays have a handful of relief options at Triple-A Durham who are on their 40-man roster and have already been up this season, including Louis Head, Brent Honeywell Jr., Trevor Richards and Ryan Sherriff.
