Marcelo Mayer left the Boston Red Sox's July 23 game against the Philadelphia Phillies in the fifth inning. After the game, he appeared with a brace on his wrist, and he was sent for an MRI.
The Red Sox have placed Mayer on the 10-day injured list, retroactive to July 24, with a wrist sprain, first reported by Chris Cotillo of MassLive. There isn't an official timeline for Mayer's return, but he told reporters he would visit with team medical staff to determine the severity of the sprain. His absence comes while the lineup is already a bit stretched — Alex Bregman is fresh off a quad injury and is still working up to everyday play, and Kristian Campbell is still struggling to find his swing in Worcester.
