It’s no secret the Red Sox have been missing several players due to injury this season.
From third baseman Alex Bregman to relief pitcher Justin Slaten, Boston remains thin in some areas with the All-Star break inching closer.
Manager Alex Cora offered updates on players’ recovery timelines, rehab assignment dates, and more ahead of Friday’s series opener against the Toronto Blue Jays at Fenway Park.
Alex Bregman
Bregman has said recently that he’s recovering well from a quad strain he suffered on May 23. He even floated the idea of returning to the diamond before MLB’s All-Star break next month, but manager Alex Cora said on Wednesday that it’s unlikely Bregman will be back before the break.
