ST. PETERSBURG — Rays outfielder Josh Lowe is optimistic he can avoid another stint on the injured list after leaving Wednesday’s game against the Red Sox with a sore right side.

Lowe said he felt some “superficial” soreness after receiving a cortisone shot on Thursday. He was not in the lineup Friday as the Rays dropped their series opener to the Royals.

He said he will throw and swing a bat on Saturday to see how he feels.
