Rays Place RHP Drew Rasmussen on 60-Day IL, Claim Zack Littell Off Waivers

Rays pitcher Drew Rasmussen has a forearm flexor strain and was placed on the 60-day injured list.
Rasmussen had a 4-2 record and 2.62 ERA in eight starts for Tampa Bay this season.
The Rays called up right-hander Chris Muller from Triple-A Durham to replace Rasmussen.
Rasmussen will rehab instead of having surgery but won't return until July.
The Rays claimed righty Zack Littell off waivers from the Red Sox and moved lefty Garrett Cleavinger to the 60-day IL.
