Luis Urias

BOS Second Baseman #2

Red Sox placed INF Luis Urías on the 10-day injured list with a strained calf.

This will end his season. Urías, a trade deadline acquisition from Milwaukee, wound up hitting .225/.361/.337 in 32 games for Boston. One imagines the Red Sox will bring him back in 2024, but it isn’t necessarily a lock, given that he’s due $5 million-$5.5 million in arbitration. Urías, who is still just 26, was a 3-WAR player in both 2021 and ’22 before an ugly 2023 that started with a hamstring injury and never got much better. Odds are that he’ll be a solid starting second baseman next year if the team gives him the chance.
Enmanuel Valdez

BOS Third Baseman #47

Red Sox recalled INF Enmanuel Valdéz from Triple-A Worcester.

Valdez was getting quite a bit of playing time at second base earlier this month while Pablo Reyes was out, and one imagines he’ll see several starts there over the rest of the season with Luis Urías gone. He’s hit .246/.294/.415 with five homers in 127 plate appearances in the majors. He came in at .254/.388/.476 in 57 games in Triple-A.
David Hamilton

BOS Shortstop #70

David Hamilton underwent surgery Thursday to repair the ulnar collateral ligament in his left thumb.

Hamilton should presumably be 100 percent for the start of spring training. The 25-year-old went 4-for-33 (.121) with two doubles over 15 games with the Red Sox this season, but he put up an .801 OPS with 17 home runs and 57 stolen bases over 103 games in Triple-A. Assuming full health, he has a chance to make an impact in the majors next season.
Brayan Bello

BOS Starting Pitcher #66

Brayan Bello was torched for eight runs in three innings by the Rangers on Wednesday.

We wouldn’t have guessed this, but prior to today, the Red Sox were the only team this season not to have a starter give up eight runs in a game. Bello got through the first inning scoreless today, but everything else was a mess, even with Bobby Dalbec turning an excellent double play to get him out of the six-run second. Bello’s ERA jumped from 3.71 to 4.11. His velocity was just fine today, so we imagine he’ll be allowed to finish out the season next week.
Adam Duvall

BOS Left Fielder #18

Adam Duvall went 2-for-4 and hit a three-run homer Wednesday in the blowout loss to the Rangers.

The Red Sox actually took a 4-0 lead in this one, thanks to the first-inning homer from Adam Duvall and a solo shot from Bobby Dalbec in the second. The Rangers then scored the next 15 runs of the game to turn it into a laugher. Duvall’s homer was his first since Sept. 3. He came into this game 5-for-50 with 24 strikeouts in September. Before that, he was 18-for-39 with seven homers in the final 10 days of August. Before that, he was 10-for-53 in the first 20 days of August. So, yeah, he’s been kind of streaky.
Luis Urias

BOS Second Baseman #2

Luis Urías was removed from Wednesday’s game against the Rangers with left calf tightness.

Urías was lifted for a pinch-runner during the seventh inning of Wednesday’s one-sided affair after going 1-for-3 at the dish. He’ll presumably undergo some additional testing to determine the severity of the issue.
Wilyer Abreu

BOS Right Fielder #86

Wilyer Abreu (hand) remains absent from the Red Sox’ lineup for Wednesday’s contest against the Rangers.

Abreu has missed four straight games since last weekend due to a left hand contusion.
Kenley Jansen

BOS Relief Pitcher #74

Kenley Jansen has yet to be cleared to rejoin the Red Sox after his bout with COVID-19.

It sounded like Jansen would be back today, but that’s not happening. It’s possible he won’t come off the injured list until next week. Chris Martin will continue to close for Boston.
Tanner Houck

BOS Starting Pitcher #89

Tanner Houck walked four and allowed two runs in four-plus innings Tuesday against the Rangers.

Houck can thank Brennan Bernardino for stranding two runners after coming on with none on in the fifth. Because of that, Houck’s ERA is still a tad under 5.00 at 4.92. He hasn’t been a disaster, but he’s not making a very good case for a spot in Boston’s rotation next year.
Triston Casas

BOS First Baseman #36

Red Sox manager Alex Cora told reporters Wednesday that Triston Casas (shoulder) is unlikely to return this season.

Casas will miss the final two weeks of the regular season after landing on the injured list over the weekend with right shoulder soreness. The 23-year-old first baseman wraps up an impressive breakthrough campaign with a robust .263/.367/.856 triple-slash line with 66 runs scored, 24 homers and 65 RBI across 502 plate appearances in 132 games. He emerged as a certifiable middle-of-the-order force in the second half, batting .317 with 15 homers and 38 RBI in just 54 games following the Midsummer Classic. He’s going to be an impact four-category fantasy contributor for a long time in Boston.
