Desmond Jennings to have knee scoped on Wednesday

Rays outfielder Desmond Jennings will have an exploratory knee scope on Wednesday. The hope is that the procedure will discover what is truly going on in the knee, as Jennings has only played 18 games thus far due to what has been called knee bursitis. (Marc Topkin on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact:

The timetable for Jenning's return was already a fluid situation, but Rays manager Kevin Cash expressed pessimism in the situation, saying that if there wasn't anything new found, the best case scenario for a return would be 3-4 weeks. He would also say that even that wasn't likely. All in all, it's best to leave Jennings on the waiver wire in just about any league besides AL-Only's at this point. We'd have to see tangible progress in Jenning's left knee before we even make a case to stash him, and the situation is extremely ominous at the moment. Joey Butler and David DeJesus owners should feel pretty safe for at least a month longer.
