Top Red Sox News

  • Red Sox's Roman Anthony: Beginning on bench Saturday

    Anthony isn't in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Yankees, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports.

    Anthony hasn't yet been able to get going with the bat since getting called up Monday, as he's logged just one hit (a double) across 17 plate appearances. The rookie outfielder does have three RBI and a promising 2:4 BB:K, so he hasn't been as overwhelmed as the .067 batting average may imply. With Anthony taking a seat Saturday, Jarren Duran, Ceddanne Rafaela and Rob Refsnyder will serve as Boston's starting outfielders from left to right.

  • Red Sox's Masataka Yoshida: Making throws from outfield

    Yoshida (shoulder) began throwing from left field to second base Thursday, MLB.com reports.

    Yoshida is increasing the intensity and velocity of his throwing, a sign that he has turned a corner in his rehab from a right shoulder labrum tear. The Red Sox are anticipating a return after the All-Star break; however, it's unclear what role awaits Yoshida. Boston recently promoted top prospect and outfielder Roman Anthony, who will need regular at-bats. There has been talk of third baseman Alex Bregman (quad) avoiding a rehab assignment, and a spot will be needed for Marcelo Mayer, who has been filling in at third base.

  • Red Sox's Hunter Dobbins: Picking up another start

    Dobbins will start Saturday's game against the Yankees at Fenway Park, Gabrielle Starr of the Boston Herald reports.

    Dobbins will receive his second straight start after he was moved from the bullpen last week to join the rotation as a replacement for Richard Fitts, who was optioned to Triple-A Worcester. Though he failed to record a strikeout in his latest outing Sunday at Yankee Stadium, Dobbins picked up a win while holding a tough New York lineup to three earned runs on four hits and no walks over five innings. Dobbins will head into Saturday's rematch with the Yankees with a 4.20 ERA, 1.28 WHIP and 37:10 K:BB in 49.1 innings over his 10 appearances (eight starts) with the Red Sox this season.

  • Red Sox's Garrett Crochet: Falls shy of shutout in no-decision

    Crochet did not factor into the decision in Friday's 2-1 extra-inning win over the Yankees, allowing one run on four hits and one walk with seven strikeouts over 8.1 innings.

    Crochet was two outs away from a potential complete-game shutout before surrendering a solo home run to Aaron Judge. Despite the late blemish, he generated 15 whiffs on 107 pitches in the longest start of his young career. The southpaw currently leads the majors with 96.1 innings and 117 strikeouts while sporting a 2.24 ERA and 1.03 WHIP. He's slated to face the Mariners on the road next week.

  • Red Sox's Justin Slaten: Not cleared to throw yet

    Slaten (shoulder) hasn't started playing catch yet, Christopher Smith of MassLive.com reported Friday

    Slaten has been shut down from throwing for nearly two weeks, having not played catch since hitting the injured list June 1 with right shoulder inflammation. It's unclear when he'll get the green light to throw, but he may not be ready to go until July.

  • Red Sox's Liam Hendriks: Resumes throwing program

    Hendriks (hip) has begun playing catch, Christopher Smith of MassLive.com reports.

    Hendriks has been shut down from baseball activities since being placed on the injured list May 30 with inflammation in his right hip. However, he's started throwing, which is a significant step in his recovery. Still, he remains a ways away from returning.

  • Red Sox's Tanner Houck: Set for rehab assignment

    Houck (elbow) is expected to begin a minor-league rehab assignment Wednesday, Mac Cerullo of the Boston Herald reports.

    Houck threw a couple bullpen sessions this week and has been sidelined since throwing 69 pitches across 2.1 innings in a May 12 start against the Tigers. Prior to the injury, Houck (0-3) had been roughed up across nine starts, notching an 8.04 ERA and 32:17 K:BB while surrendering 10 home runs across 43.2 innings of work.

  • Red Sox's Wilyer Abreu: Swings bat Friday

    Red Sox manager Alex Cora said Abreu (oblique) swung the bat well Friday, Rob Bradford of WEEI.com reports.

    Abreu appears to be progressing well in his rehab from an oblique injury he suffered June 8. Cora said Abreu is on track to return during Boston's series with the Giants one week from Friday. Abreu slashed .245/.321/.471 with 13 home runs, 32 RBI, 28 runs scored, four stolen bases and a 24:54 BB:K across 234 plate appearances before getting hurt. Top prospect Roman Anthony has been manning right field for Boston during Abreu's absence.

  • Red Sox's Alex Bregman: Could skip rehab assignment

    Bregman (quadriceps) said Friday he might skip a minor-league rehab assignment and is running at about 50 percent, Tim Healey of The Boston Globe reports.

    Bregman opted not to provide a target return date, but the third baseman appears to be making good progress in his recovery from a strained right quad. If Bregman foregoes a rehab assignment, he could fast-track his return. Still, he seems to be multiple weeks out.

  • Red Sox's Roman Anthony: Starts against southpaw

    Anthony is in the lineup for Friday's game against left-hander Ryan Yarbrough and the Yankees, batting fifth and playing right field, Gabrielle Starr of the Boston Herald reports.

    Anthony was pulled for a pinch hitter against lefty Ian Seymour in his major-league debut Monday, raising fears that he could be stuck in a platoon role. For now, that doesn't seem to be the case, as he's in the lineup for his first opportunity to start against a southpaw since his promotion. The Red Sox are set to face two more lefties (Carlos Rodon and Max Fried) over the weekend.

  • Red Sox's Jarren Duran: Receiving rare day off

    Duran is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Yankees.

    Duran will step out of the lineup Friday after a run of 54 consecutive starts. He'll put a pause on his nine-game hit streak, during which he's batting .316 (12-for-38) with five doubles, a triple and a homer. Rob Refsnyder will take over in left field and bat leadoff for Boston.

  • Red Sox's Marcelo Mayer: Idle against lefty

    Mayer is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Yankees, Gabrielle Starr of the Boston Herald reports.

    Mayer will dodge a same-handed matchup against Ryan Yarbrough on Friday, as Abraham Toro fills in at third base and Romy Gonzalez plays first base. Mayer has been on the bench for each of Boston's last four games against lefties.

  • Red Sox's Walker Buehler: Bounces back in seven strong frames

    Buehler (5-4) tallied the win Wednesday against the Rays after giving up three runs on six hits and one walk in seven innings. He struck out seven.

    It was an encouraging bounce-back performance for Buehler, who was crushed for a season-high seven runs in his previous start against the Yankees. The 30-year-old right-hander tied his second-highest strikeout total of the year, and he fired a season-high seven frames for his fourth quality start of the campaign. Buehler will look to further improve on his 5.01 ERA, 1.38 WHIP and 51:18 K:BB over 55.2 innings in his next outing, which is set to come at pitcher-friendly T-Mobile Park against a Mariners club that has a .600 OPS at home since May 1.

  • Red Sox's Brian Van Belle: DFA'd by Sox

    The Red Sox designated Van Belle for assignment Wednesday, Gabrielle Starr of the Boston Herald reports.

    Just two days after being selected to the active roster, Van Belle will now be booted off the Red Sox's 40-man roster before getting a chance to make his MLB debut. His roster spot will be given to Jorge Alcala, who was acquired in a trade with the Twins on Wednesday. Van Belle could attract interest from other teams in need of pitching after starting the Triple-A season with a 2.47 ERA ,1.06 WHIP and 41:7 K:BB through 51 innings.
