Red Sox's Conrad Cason: Returns to action
Cason (elbow) is hitting .267 with two home runs and a 3:1 K:BB in four games in the Florida Complex League.
The two-way prospect is on his way back from August 2025 Tommy John surgery, and while he isn't ready to pitch in games, he is healthy enough play in complex-league games as the designated hitter. Cason is still just 19 and has significant upside as a hitter and as a right-handed pitcher, but the young shortstop will likely be limited to DH duty for most or all of 2026.

Red Sox's Justin Slaten: Fires scoreless frame
Slaten struck out one over a scoreless inning in Sunday's 4-1 loss to the Rays.
Slaten made his first appearance since being activated off the injured list Saturday. The right-hander had dealt with an oblique injury that kept him sidelined since April 4. Slaten is likely to fill a spot at the back end of Boston's bullpen.

Red Sox's Payton Tolle: Falls to Tampa
Tolle (1-2) took the loss Sunday against the Rays, allowing three runs on seven hits over five innings. He struck out four without walking a batter.
The seven hits given up by Tolle on Sunday matched his total allowed across 17.2 innings in his first three starts this season. The left-hander's ERA sits at 2.78 this year with a 0.88 WHIP and 27:6 K:BB over 22.2 innings. Tolle is currently lined up for a tough road matchup in Atlanta his next time out.

Red Sox's Willson Contreras: Initial scan negative
Contreras' bruised right hand is sore after being hit by a pitch during Sunday's 4-1 loss to the Rays, but the initial scan of the area come back negative, Ari Alexander of 7 News Boston reports.
Interim manager Chad Tracy didn't offer specifics, but the veteran first baseman likely underwent an X-ray. Contreras will have Monday's team off day to aid in his recovery ahead of Tuesday's series opener versus Philadelphia.

Red Sox's Brayan Bello: Working behind opener again
Bello is slated to work in bulk relief behind an opener in Tuesday's game against the Phillies, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports.
After Bello struggled to a 9.12 ERA and 2.26 WHIP while starting in his first six appearances of the season, the Red Sox opted to use him behind opening pitcher Jovani Moran during his latest turn through the rotation this past Tuesday against the Tigers. The arrangement paid immediate dividends, with Bello reaching season highs in innings (seven) and strikeouts (seven) while limiting Detroit to one earned run on four hits and one walk. The Red Sox will face some tough decisions with their rotation once Garrett Crochet (shoulder) potentially returns from the injured list later this month, so Bello may need another strong showing Tuesday to ensure he continues to be utilized as a starter or in a starter-like role.

Red Sox's Ranger Suarez: Making next start Thursday
Suarez (hamstring) is scheduled to start Thursday's game against the Phillies in Boston, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports.
After he was lifted early in his most recent start May 3 against the Astros due to right hamstring tightness, Suarez had a turn through the rotation skipped but looks set to avoid a stint on the injured list. He'll end up returning to the mound on 10 days' rest to face his former team for the first time since signing a lavish five-year deal with Boston over the winter. The veteran southpaw has gotten off to a strong start to his inaugural campaign with the Red Sox, going 2-2 with a 2.77 ERA, 0.95 WHIP and 32:10 K:BB in 39 innings through his first seven outings.

Red Sox's Willson Contreras: Suffers bruised hand
The Red Sox announced that Contreras was removed from Sunday's game against the Rays due to a bruised right hand, Tim Healey of The Boston Globe reports.
Andruw Monasterio covered first base to begin the second inning after Contreras was hit by a pitch in the bottom of the first. While preliminary X-rays have ruled out any sort of fracture, he could be subject to further tests. Contreras will benefit from a team off day Monday before the Red Sox begin a three-game series with the Phillies on Tuesday.

Red Sox's Willson Contreras: Lifted after hit by pitch
Contreras was removed from Sunday's game against the Rays after being hit in the left hand/wrist area by a pitch during the first inning, Gabrielle Starr of the Boston Herald reports.
After getting plunked by a 94.2 mph sinker, Contreras was able to take his base, but the Red Sox pulled him from the contest to begin the second inning. Contreras will presumably undergo X-rays to determine whether he's dealing with any structural damage.

Red Sox's Carlos Narvaez: On bench Sunday
Narvaez is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rays, Tim Healey of The Boston Globe reports.
It's the second straight game on the bench for Narvaez, who has just one hit (a double) and three walks over his past 16 at-bats. The 27-year-old recently appeared to have taken a firmer hold of Boston's No. 1 catching job by starting five of seven games, but he's now started just two of the past six contests. Mickey Gasper is receiving his second straight nod Sunday, while Connor Wong has also picked up two starts during that six-game stretch.

Red Sox's Payton Tolle: Rays-Red Sox rained out
Tolle and the Red Sox won't face the Rays on Saturday, as the game was postponed due to rain, Gabrielle Starr of the Boston Herald reports.
The two teams will make up Saturday's contest during a doubleheader July 17, and Tolle will presumably make his next start during Sunday's series finale. He'll look to continue his hot streak after turning in a 2.04 ERA and 0.74 WHIP through his first three outings.

Red Sox's Jack Anderson: Back in minors
The Red Sox optioned Anderson to Triple-A Worcester on Saturday, Ari Alexander of 7 News Boston reports.
Anderson was recalled from Triple-A on Friday, but Justin Slaten's (oblique) return from the injured list Saturday will cause Anderson to return to the WooSox without appearing for the big club. The 26-year-old righty has surrendered three earned runs in eight innings with Boston and owns a 4.50 ERA through 18 frames in the minors.

Red Sox's Justin Slaten: Back from injured list
The Red Sox reinstated Slaten (oblique) from the injured list Saturday, Ari Alexander of 7 News Boston reports.
After pitching two shutout innings during his rehab assignment with Triple-A Worcester, Slaten will return to Boston's bullpen, ending a month-long absence due to an oblique strain. Jack Anderson was optioned to Worcester in a corresponding move.

Red Sox's Carlos Narvaez: Day off Saturday
Narvaez isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Rays, Gabrielle Starr of the Boston Herald reports.
Narvaez has been starting approximately every other day since the beginning of the month. Mickey Gasper will get the nod at catcher and bat sixth.

Red Sox's Wilyer Abreu: Homers in win
Abreu went 1-for-2 with two walks and a solo home run in Friday's 2-0 win over the Rays.
Abreu's third-inning home run was all the Red Sox needed in a pitcher's duel at Fenway Park. It was the second homer in the last four games and sixth of the season for Abreu, who has knocked in runs in five of the last seven contests. He's been a steady producer since Opening Day and is slashing .303/.387/.486 over 163 plate appearances.

Red Sox's Justin Slaten: Poised for return
Slaten (oblique) is expected to be activated from the 15-day injured list Saturday or Sunday, MLB.com reports.
Slaten made two strong rehab appearances for Triple-A Worcester and was seemingly available to be activated Friday after Boston optioned Jake Bennett following his start Thursday. Instead, the team recalled Jack Anderson for Friday's game against the Rays. "I think you'll see Slaten this weekend at some point active," interim manager Chad Tracy told Christopher Smith of MassLive.com before Friday's game. The manager believed that Anderson could provide length if needed. Slaten, who hasn't pitched since April 8, recently threw for the WooSox on Wednesday.
