The day after

The Rays take on the Orioles here at Camden Yards for a 7:05 start without pitcher Juan Salas, who will serve first of a 50-game suspension for failing a drug test tonight. Players were shocked when they heard the news of Salas' suspension when they arrived at the Trop Monday evening, but the consensus was that if he broke the rules of MLB's joint drug prevention and treatment program, he has to serve the time. Manager Joe Maddon said Salas is in the Dominican Republic now before returning to workout at the Naimoli Complex, but no once has talked to him individually.

Tonight's full lineup:
Badelli, CF
Dukes, DH
Crawford, LF
Wigginton, 3B
Upton, 2B
Young, RF
Pena, 1B
Navarro, C
Harris, SS

Seo, RHP
