Arencibia was called up from Triple-A Durham on Wednesday, Bill Chastain of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

With Curt Casali (hamstring) slated to miss at least the next two weeks while on the DL, Arencibia will come up from Triple-A to split time with Rene Rivera behind the plate. However, manager Kevin Cash indicated Rivera will see the bulk of the starts until Arencibia gets acquainted with the Rays' staff. The veteran Arencibia appeared in 63 games for the Rangers last season but he hit just .177 with 62 strikeouts in 63 games. He holds a .227/.259/.443 slash line with 65 RBI for Durham this season, though his high K-rate continues to be a major issue.
