Caleb Durbin on the bench amid cold stretch

Caleb Durbin

BOS 3rd Baseman #5

Player Stats

Caleb Durbin is on the bench for Saturday’s game against the Orioles.

Durbin takes a seat as his struggles at the dish continue. He’s batting just .191 (9-for-47) over his last 15 games and has just 2 hits in 22 at-bats over his last seven contests. He was insanely hot for most of the summer, but has run into a cold stretch recently. It’ll be Nick Sogard at third base in this one.

Nick Sogard went 1-for-4 with a solo home run against the Yankees on Saturday.

Sogard’s home run was his third of the season. He hit a solo shot off Max Fried in the third inning. Sogard has three home runs, six runs scored and five RBI over his last nine games. He’s hitting .264 with a .773 OPS and 12 RBI.
Caleb Durbin

BOS 3rd Baseman #5

Caleb Durbin went 2-for-4 on Wednesday against the Marlins.

This was a weak showing for the Red Sox’s lineup as they were shutout by the Marlins in a loss that snapped their five-game win streak. They had just five hits and none went for extra bases. Durbin got his though with two knocks as he stayed scorching hot with a .324/.395/.417 slash-line over his last 30 games.
Willson Contreras

BOS 1st Baseman #40

Willson Contreras is out of the lineup for Wednesday’s series finale against the Marlins.

Contreras has managed to play through an avalanche of physical issues without missing too much time during his Red Sox debut. It appears to be a routine day off with Nick Sogard getting a chance to handle the cold corner. He should be ready to roll for Friday’s pivotal series opener against the Yankees.
Caleb Durbin

BOS 3rd Baseman #5

Caleb Durbin is out of the lineup for Tuesday’s game against the Marlins.

It appears to be a routine day off for Durbin with Nick Sogard getting a look at third base. The Red Sox are going to have some hard decisions in the near future with both Trevor Story and Isiah Kiner-Falefa close to returning from the injured list. That’s presumably why Sogard is getting the additional playing time in this case.
Nick Sogard

BOS 2nd Baseman #20

Nick Sogard homered, doubled and walked Sunday as the Red Sox defeated the Giants 5-4.

The Red Sox need to free up three roster spots with Roman Anthony, Trevor Story and Isiah Kiner-Falefa all due back this week, but Sogard, who has taken over as Boston’s starting second baseman, has to stick around. He has two homers, four doubles, five singles and six walks in his last six games, raising his OPS from .663 to .827.
Nick Sogard

BOS 2nd Baseman #20

Nick Sogard went 2-for-3 with one RBI and two walks in Boston’s 3-2 win over the Giants on Saturday.

Sogard continues to pay off in the leadoff spot for the Red Sox, reaching four times against the Giants on Saturday. He knocked a base hit and drew two walks before delivering a game-tying double in the ninth before Boston’s walk-off win. The 28-year-old infielder is slashing .277/.392/.387 with one homer, 18 runs scored, and eight RBI across 146 plate appearances.
Jahmai Jones

BOS Designated Hitter #37

Jahmai Jones was scratched from the lineup for Monday’s series opener against the Diamondbacks.

No word yet on the reason for the move. Jones has been replaced by Mickey Gasper at DH with Nick Sogard moving up to the leadoff spot to face Arizona lefty Mitch Bratt.
Nick Sogard

BOS 2nd Baseman #20

Nick Sogard went 2-for-4 with two RBI in Friday’s loss to the Pirates.

Sogard’s first RBI came on a sacrifice fly in the fifth inning that brought Jarren Duran home to score. In the seventh inning, Sogard would single to again bring home Duran, as he wound up being responsible for two of the four runs the Red Sox scored on the night. Sogard has enjoyed a solid week at the plate, as he’s slashing .296/.375/.370 in his last seven games.
Caleb Durbin

BOS 3rd Baseman #5

Caleb Durbin went 3-for-5 with a grand slam and five RBI against the Blue Jays on Thursday.

It was a tight game throughout until Durbin’s slam gave Boston a 5-0 lead in the eighth. Durbin now has two grand slams in nine days after going his first 240 career games without one. He’s totaled 11 homers and 37 RBI in his last 55 games after opening his Red Sox career with one homer and 23 RBI through his first 59 games.
Caleb Durbin

BOS 3rd Baseman #5

Caleb Durbin is absent from the Red Sox’ starting lineup for Sunday’s series finale against the Athletics.

Like most hitters in the Red Sox’ lineup, Durbin has been sizzling of late, slashing .367/.448/.510 with a homer, 10 RBI and three stolen bases in 60 plate appearances over his last 13 contests. Anthony Seigler will start in his place at third base and will bat sixth for the Red Sox on Sunday afternoon in Boston.

Athletics recalled RHP Seth Johnson from Triple-A Las Vegas.

The 27-year-old hurler has made 21 appearances at the MLB level between the Phillies and A’s this season, compiling an uninspiring 7.29 ERA, 2.00 WHIP and a 26/17 K/BB ratio over 21 innings. He’ll give A’s skipper Mark Kotsay another option to use in the middle innings.

Athletics optioned RHP Kade Morris to Triple-A Las Vegas.

Morris struggled in a no-decision against the Mariners on Friday, giving up five runs in just 2 1/3 innings of work. Since he wasn’t going to be available again for at least a few days, the A’s shipped him out to add a fresh arm to their bullpen in Seth Johnson.

The Blue Jays plan to get a second opinion on right-hander Jameson Taillon’s (elbow) MRI results.

While they haven’t confirmed anything yet, it certainly sounds like Taillon is going to miss the remainder of the 2026 season due to inflammation in his pitching elbow. Expect confirmation to come before the weekend is through.

Joe Ryan (glute) threw a bullpen session on Saturday without any issues.

The expectation now is that the 30-year-old hurler will be cleared to rejoin the Twins’ rotation this week. Ryan threw just 42 pitches in a minor league rehab game at Triple-A St. Paul this week, so he may have a pitch count limitation in his first start back, but it sure sounds like his next start will be with the Twins.

Shohei Othani (knee, biceps) remains out of the Dodgers’ starting lineup for Saturday’s contest against the Nationals.

It’s the third straight game that Ohtani has missed due to lingering knee and biceps issues. The Dodgers are reportedly still weighing whether or not the 32-year-old superstar will require a trip to the injured list. Dalton Rushing will function as the team’s designated hitter on Saturday and will bat seventh against Nationals’ right-hander Cade Cavalli.
