Feduccia is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Blue Jays, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
Feduccia is on the bench for the third time in four games and for the second time in three matchups versus a right-handed starting pitcher (Kevin Gausman). Nick Fortes appears to have at least moved into a timeshare with Feduccia, if he hasn't already overtaken him as the Rays' preferred option behind the plate.

Rotowire

Rays' Hunter Feduccia: Traded to Tampa Bay
Rotowire
The Rays acquired Feduccia on Wednesday in a three-team trade with the Reds and Dodgers, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.
Feduccia has performed well in Triple-A this season with a .287/.398/.460 slash line through 329 plate appearances, but he was unlikely to spend a lot of time in the majors with Will Smith and Dalton Rushing already on the Dodgers. The path to playing time is much more favorable in Tampa Bay, as the Rays' catcher room currently consists of Nick Fortes (.632 OPS) and Matt Thaiss (.638 OPS).
