Madris was claimed off waivers by the Rays on Friday, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports. He will report to Triple-A Durham.
The Pirates designated Madris for assignment earlier this week, but the Rays apparently see something they like. He slashed .294/.366/.482 with seven home runs, four steals and a 0.46 BB/K in 71 games at Triple-A this season but struggled with a .177 batting average and one home run in 123 plate appearances in the majors.
