The Rays will call up Simpson from Triple-A Durham, Ryan Bass of FanDuel Sports Network Sun reports.
The most prolific base stealer in the minors, Simpson swiped 104 bags between High-A Bowling Green and Double-A Montgomery last season and has already stolen eight bases this year with Durham. Simpson has no power and it's fair to question how much he'll ultimately hit, but his difference-making ability on the basepaths makes him a must-add in rotisserie leagues. Manager Kevin Cash said Friday that Simpson is "going to get an opportunity here and a little bit of a runway."
