Alex Bregman’s return to the Red Sox from his right quad strain isn’t imminent, but he’s hopeful that it won’t sideline him for too much longer.
The Red Sox third baseman believes he might be back before the All-Star break begins on July 14 after his ultrasound on Wednesday showed encouraging results.
“[It] showed that it was doing really well and healing the way we wanted it to,” Bregman told reporters. “So just continue the progression of getting stronger and picking up the running volume. It’s moving in the right direction.”
In fact, Bregman’s quad is healing well enough that he thinks he might not have to go on a rehab stint in the minors before making his return to the majors.
