  • Red Sox's Marcelo Mayer: On 7-day IL at Double-A

    Double-A Portland placed Mayer on the 7-day injured list Thursday with hip irritation, Mac Cerullo of the Boston Herald reports.

    Mayer missed just under a week of action shortly after the All-Star break due to a pectoral injury, but it's a hip issue that he suffered Tuesday that has prompted Portland to deactivate him. The expectation is that he'll need only a minimum stint on the IL. Mayer has had a big bounce-back season in 2024 following a disappointing 2023 campaign, slashing .307/.370/.480 with eight homers and 13 stolen bases with Portland.

  • Red Sox's Rafael Devers: Walks off Mariners

    Devers went 3-for-5 with two doubles and an RBI in Wednesday's 3-2 extra-inning win over the Mariners.

    Devers walked off Seattle with a double in the top of 10th inning that plated Tyler O'Neill. The three-hit performance extended a hit streak to eight games, during which Devers has gone 17-for-32 (.531) with 10 extra-base hits, seven RBI and seven runs scored.

  • Red Sox's Lucas Sims: Debuts in high-leverage spot

    Sims allowed one walk over a scoreless two-thirds of an inning in Wednesday's 3-2 extra-inning win over Seattle.

    Sims replaced starter Brayan Bello with one out in the seventh inning and runners at the corners. He sandwiched a walk around a short flyout and a groundout to get out of the inning. It was Sims' debut for the Red Sox, who acquired him ahead of Tuesday's trade deadline. Boston's bullpen has been the primary culprit of the team's 3-8 start coming out of the All-Star break, and Sims is expected to help. He'll be used in high-leverage spots ahead of closer Kenley Jansen, Julian McWilliams of The Boston Globe reports. The high-leverage crew will be bolstered by the eventual returns of Chris Martin (elbow) and Justin Slaten (elbow).

  • Red Sox's Danny Jansen: Contributes to win

    Jansen started at catcher and went 2-for-4 with an RBI in Wednesday's 3-2 extra-inning win over the Mariners.

    Jansen delivered a game-tying run with a sixth-inning single, which eventually led to the extra frame. He's made two starts (one at DH) since being acquired from the Blue Jays and his 4-for-7 for his new team. Connor Wong remains the starter at catcher, while Jansen is expected to see steady dose of work against lefties.

  • Red Sox's Brayan Bello: Fans seven in no-decision

    Bello allowed two runs on seven hits and two walks while striking out seven batters over 6.1 innings in a no-decision against Seattle on Wednesday.

    Bello allowed a run in the fourth and fifth frames but nothing more. The right-hander notched his fifth quality start over his past eight outings after recording just two quality starts across his initial 12 appearances of the season. Bello's strikeout numbers have been up of late as well -- he's posted at least seven punchouts in four of his past six starts after reaching that mark just three times through his initial 14 appearances.

  • Red Sox's Kenley Jansen: Dealing with back injury

    Manager Alex Cora said Jansen tweaked his lower back during Wednesday's game against the Mariners, Mac Cerullo of the Boston Herald reports.

    Jansen appeared to be hurting on the mound during the ninth frame of Wednesday's win, though he remained in the game and finished the inning after Boston's training staff checked on him. He'll get an extra day to rest during the Red Sox's day off Thursday, and he'll be re-evaluated before Friday's game against Texas.

  • Red Sox's Jamie Westbrook: Sent to Triple-A

    The Red Sox optioned Westbrook to Triple-A Worcester on Wednesday, Ian Browne of MLB.com reports.

    Westbrook saw regular reps at second base against left-handed pitching but did little with them, going just 2-for-22 at the plate this month. Nick Sogard was called up from Triple-A Worcester and will replace Westbrook on the 26-man active roster as the short-side platoon mate for David Hamilton at the keystone.

  • Red Sox's Nick Sogard: First major-league promotion

    The Red Sox selected Sogard's contract from Triple-A Worcester on Wednesday, Ian Browne of MLB.com reports.

    Sogard is slated to start at second base against left-handed pitching and will be making his major-league debut when he gets into a game. The 26-year-old has slashed .279/.382/.439 with 12 home runs and 10 steals in 89 games with Worcester this season. Sogard has experience at every position other than pitcher and catcher, so he could bounce around to different spots, if needed.

  • Red Sox's Yohan Ramirez: Removed from 40-man roster

    The Red Sox designated Ramirez for assignment Wednesday, Ian Browne of MLB.com reports.

    Ramirez was claimed off waivers Sunday and gave up three runs (two earned) over 1.1 innings in Tuesday's loss to the Mariners in his lone appearance for the Red Sox. He's already made appearances with four different teams at the big-league level this season.

  • Red Sox's Chris Martin: Could begin rehab games next week

    Martin (elbow) threw a successful 25-pitch bullpen session Wednesday and is slated to throw off a mound again in the coming days, Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic reports.

    As long as he comes out of the next bullpen session with no concerns, Martin is expected to be cleared to start a rehab assignment next week. He's been out since early July with right elbow inflammation but looks to be progressing toward a return in early or mid-August.

  • Red Sox's Liam Hendriks: Hopes for clearance to face hitters

    Hendriks (elbow) is headed to Texas to meet with his surgeon and hopes to be cleared to face hitters, Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic reports.

    Hendriks has been throwing two bullpen sessions per week over the last month as he works his way back from Tommy John surgery. In his most recent session Tuesday, he threw 35 pitches and used his full repertoire. There's no clear timetable for Hendriks' return to the active roster yet, but he wouldn't appear too far off from a rehab assignment if things continue trending in a positive direction.

  • Red Sox's Connor Wong: Day off Wednesday

    Wong is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's contest versus the Mariners, Mac Cerullo of the Boston Herald reports.

    Wong had caught each of the previous five games for the Red Sox, so he will get some rest during Wednesday's afternoon tilt. Danny Jansen will start behind the dish.

  • Red Sox's Tyler O'Neill: Absent from lineup

    O'Neill is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Mariners, Mac Cerullo of the Boston Herald reports.

    O'Neill will get a routine day off after he had started in each of the previous five contests. Rob Refsnyder and Wilyer Abreu will cover the corner-outfield spots for the Red Sox.

  • Red Sox's Rafael Devers: Launches 24th homer

    Devers went 3-for-5 with a three-run home run, a double, an RBI single and an additional run scored during Tuesday's 10-6 loss to the Mariners.

    Devers got the Red Sox on the scoreboard in the third inning, tagging Luis Castillo for a three-run home run. The third baseman has been on a tear to close July, going 14-for-27 with six doubles, a triple and a homer in his last seven games. The hot streak has brought Devers' batting average above .300, and his 24 homers are tied for ninth in baseball.

  • Red Sox's James Paxton: Takes loss in return to Red Sox

    Paxton (8-3) took the loss Tuesday against Seattle, allowing six runs (three earned) on six hits and a walk across 4.1 innings. He struck out five.

    Paxton ran into trouble in the fifth inning and didn't get much help defensively. There were a couple errors behind him and Paxton exited the contest with the bases loaded and one out, handing the ball off to Zack Kelly in what wound up being a five-run fifth inning. In his last five starts, Paxton has logged an 8.18 ERA with 20 strikeouts in 22 innings. He's tentatively scheduled to face the Royals on Monday.

  • Red Sox's Triston Casas: Begins rehab assignment

    Casas (ribs) started at designated hitter and went 0-for-3 with a walk for Triple-A Worcester on Tuesday.

    This was the first rehab game for Casas, who batted second and was removed after seven innings. The Red Sox will want to see Casas play the field and in back-to-back games before returning him to the majors. He could potentially be activated off the injured list early in August.
