Manager Kevin Cash announced that Yarbrough will be activated from the COVID-19 injured list to pitch Wednesday against the Orioles, Neil Solondz of the Rays Radio Network reports. The club has not determined whether he will start or serve as a bulk reliever.
Yarbrough was placed on the COVID-19 list Aug. 10. The southpaw is set to be activated Wednesday, and he should be in line to log the bulk of the innings, whether it's to start the game or in relief of an opener. Yarbrough's activation seems likely to push Shane McClanahan's start to Thursday.
