The Rays have designated Dane De La Rosa for assignment, according to Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times (on Twitter). The move creates room on the 40-man roster for Luke Scott after his one-year, $2.75MM deal was finalized earlier this evening.
De La Rosa has made just 12 relief appearances for the major league squad over the last two years. He spent the bulk of that time in Triple-A, where he posted a 3.00 ERA with 11.1 K/9 and 4.4 BB/9.
