Rotoworld Player News

Willson Contreras

BOS 1st Baseman #40

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Willson Contreras hit a two-run homer off Seth Lugo to lead the Red Sox past the Royals 3-1 on Monday.

Contreras started the scoring with his 435-foot blast in the sixth inning, and both teams scored single runs afterwards. It was Contreras’s 10th homer of the year, putting him halfway to his total of 20 from last season. His career high is 24, which he achieved in 105 games for the Cubs in 2019.
Sonny Gray

BOS Starting Pitcher #54

Sonny Gray limited the Royals to one run in six innings and struck out nine in a victory Monday.

Gray was plenty effective in his first two starts since coming off the injured list, but it was nice to see the strikeout ability return tonight. He got five on his sweeper alone. Gray had a 30 percent strikeout rate in 2024 and came in at 27 percent last season, but coming into tonight, he was at just 15 percent in his seven starts this year. The victory makes him 5-1 with a 2.93 ERA. He’ll face the Twins on Sunday.
Aroldis Chapman

BOS Relief Pitcher #44

Aroldis Chapman worked a perfect ninth with a two-run lead for his 11th save Monday versus the Royals.

It’s Chapman’s 13th straight scoreless appearances and sixth in a row in which he hasn’t allowed a hit. The save was his 378th of his career, so he’s passed Joe Nathan to stand alone in 10th place on the all-time list. Next up is Dennis Eckersley at 390, though since Billy Wagner is eighth at 422, ninth is as far as Chapman is going to move up the list this year.
Roman Anthony

BOS Left Fielder #19

Roman Anthony (wrist) experienced soreness while attempting to swing a bat on Monday.

The Red Sox aren’t going to take any chances with the long-term health of their potential franchise cornerstone, which is why Anthony will be shut down for a couple days before he picks up a bat again. The 22-year-old prodigy has been on the shelf recovering from a right wrist sprain since early May. It’s not uncommon for a hitter to experience soreness and discomfort when they resume swinging a bat, so there’s no reason to panic just yet. However, it’s a situation fantasy managers should closely monitor.
Caleb Durbin

BOS 3rd Baseman #5

Caleb Durbin is not in the starting lineup for the Red Sox on Monday against the Royals.

Nick Sogard is playing third base and batting ninth on Monday. Despite Durbin’s struggles at the plate this season, he has been tremendous defensively for a Red Sox team that spent the off season adding ground ball pitchers to its rotation. As a result, we imagine this will be more of a mini reset for Durbin, rather than the Red Sox making a change at third base.
Roman Anthony

BOS Left Fielder #19

The Athletic’s Jen McCaffrey reports that Roman Anthony (wrist) will swing a bat on Monday.

Anthony has been sidelined since May 4, and the Red Sox have focused on building strength in his hand before allowing him to grip a bat. Now, he will start with hitting flips before hitting off a machine. If that goes well, he could face live pitching sometime later this week and perhaps only need a short rehab stint before he’s back in Boston before the end of May. The Red Sox offense could really use him.
Brayan Bello

BOS Starting Pitcher #66

Brayan Bello fell to 2-5 on Sunday in Atlanta, giving up seven runs on eight hits over five innings pitched.

Bello walked three and only struck out one. He had worked behind an opener in his past two outings, registering his two best performances of the season. Boston elected not to give him an opener in Atlanta, but the poor results could be equally due to the brutally tough matchup. His next outing projects to come at home against the Twins, and it’s worth watching whether he draws an official start.
Mickey Gasper

BOS Catcher #30

Mickey Gasper went 0-for-4 with two strikeouts as the Red Sox were defeated by the Braves 8-1 on Sunday.

Gasper hit second in all three games against Atlanta this weekend, relegating Masataka Yoshida to just one start despite the team facing three right-handers. The 30-year-old catcher has hit well since being recalled from Triple-A, but it remains to be seen how long he can hold down the two-hole versus righties.
Jarren Duran

BOS Left Fielder #16

Jarren Duran went 2-for-5 with a double as the Red Sox fell to the Braves on Sunday afternoon.

Duran’s contact quality has slipped this season, and he’s now hitting just .183/.243/.305 with a strikeout rate that has ticked up for the second straight season, now over 26.5 percent. He’s remained Boston’s primary leadoff hitter despite the struggles, having filled the role in 16 straight contests through Sunday.
Carlos Narváez

BOS Catcher #75

X-rays were negative on Carlos Narváez’s middle finger, and he said he’s day-to-day.

Narváez said the finger was “sideways” for a time, suggesting that he might have dislocated it. But he apparently won’t miss much time. Connor Wong could start Monday.
