Red Sox reinstate Christian Vázquez from the COVID list

The Red Sox have been dealing with some COVID issues the last couple of days, with both of their catchers hitting the COVID list since Monday morning. For Christian Vázquez, however, the stay was not long as he has been reinstated just a day after being placed on the list. Having been vaccinated, he needed two positive tests, along with being without symptoms and clearing with an independent panel in order to return to action. The team made the announcement prior to Wednesday’s game against the Blue Jays, with Ronaldo Hernández being optioned back down to Triple-A Worcester to make room on the active roster.
