Red Sox infielder Eduardo Nunez was reactivated from the injured list Saturday after missing 16 games due to a mid-back strain. Infielder Tzu-Wei Lin was placed on the 10-day injured list with a left knee sprain.
Lin was recalled on April 19 to replace Nunez on the roster during his IL stint. Lin went 4 for 20 in 14 games.
Nunez appeared in four rehab assignment games with Triple A Pawtucket before returning to the active roster.
