Fri May 23 2014 | 22:59 | Figueroa delivers walk-off double vs. BoSox |
Cole Figueroa smacked a walk-off RBI double in Friday's 1-0 win over the Red Sox. |
Desmond Jennings set the table by drawing a one-out walk against Burke Badenhop before stealing second base. Figueroa then brought him home with a drive to the right-center field gap. Not a bad week for the 26-year-old, who notched his first major league hit on Thursday. The defending World Series champion Red Sox have now lost eight consecutive games. |

Thu May 15 2014 | 18:38 | Cole Figueroa called up from Triple-A |
Rays purchased the contract of INF Cole Figueroa from Triple-A Durham. |
Figueroa, 26, is batting .299/.397/.462 in 33 games this year at Durham, but he doesn't have power and doesn't run much. He could see the occasional start at second base with Ben Zobrist (thumb) on the shelf. |

Fri Dec 17 2010 | 18:55 | Cole Figueroa acquired by Rays |
Rays acquired INF Cole Figueroa from the Padres. |
A 2008 sixth-round pick, Figueroa posted an impressive .408 OBP at High-A Lake Elsinore in 2010, drawing 81 walks while striking out just 54 times. He doesn't hit for any power but has decent speed (26 steals this past season) and can play both shortstop and second base. He'll likely start 2011 at Double-A. |
