Red Sox's Yoan Moncada: Will be called up Friday

Moncada will be called up Friday, Brian MacPherson of the Providence Journal reports.

Moncada will see time at third base, where the Red Sox have experienced a black hole of production for a couple of months now. Aaron Hill, Travis Shaw and Brock Holt are a combined 50-for-242 (.203) as third baseman since July 8. The Red Sox will be cognizant of putting too much on the young man's plate, but Moncada can certainly help at third base and as a pinch runner.
