The Red Sox won’t have Rafael Devers for Sunday’s series finale against the Dodgers, but they aren’t too concerned with his long-term health.
Devers is still dealing with an injury he suffered to his right wrist in Saturday’s win, though Alex Cora is optimistic he’ll be back in the lineup soon.
“He’ll get X-rays later on today,” the Red Sox manager told reporters ahead of Sunday’s game. “He’s sore. So we’ll just stay from him. We believe it’s a day-by-day thing. So it makes sense to keep him out of the lineup and go from there.”
Devers suffered the injury in the eighth inning when Dodgers reliever Bryan Hudson’s 91 mph fastball hit him square on the wrist.
