Red Sox's Nathan Hickey: Getting starts at 1B
Hickey has played first base in three of his last eight games for Triple-A Worcester, Alex Speier of The Boston Globe reports.
Hickey, who has played catcher exclusively through his first three professional seasons, may have a path to the majors at first base with Triston Casas (oblique) on the 60-day injured list. However, he's off to a slow start for the WooSox, slashing .226/.330/.393 over 97 plate appearances. There's always been questions about Hickey's defense behind the plate, and a position move has been discussed previously within the organization.

Red Sox's Pablo Reyes: Exits 40-man roster
The Red Sox designated Reyes for assignment Monday.
Boston needed to clear a spot on their 26-man active roster and 40-man roster for first baseman/designated hitter Garrett Cooper, and Reyes ended up being the casualty. Reyes slashed a solid .287/.339/.377 for Boston last season but has managed just a .183/.234/.217 batting line over 61 plate appearances in 2024. Teams are always looking for versatile players, so even with his poor start, Reyes could draw some interest via trade or waivers.

Red Sox's Kenley Jansen: Secures win over Cubs
Jansen (1-0) got the win over the Cubs on Sunday, pitching a perfect inning while striking out a batter in the process.
Jansen entered in the ninth with the score tied 4-4 and did his job by retiring the side in order in 10 pitches. He would wind up with his first win of the campaign after the Red Sox walked it off in the bottom of the inning. Jansen has now pitched three consecutive scoreless outings after blowing a save chance April 16. For the year, he owns a 1.86 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 14:8 K:BB in 9.2 innings to go along with five saves.

Red Sox's Tanner Houck: Excels versus Cubs
Houck didn't factor into the decision in Sunday's 5-4 win over the Cubs, allowing one run on four hits and zero walks while striking out nine over 6.2 innings.
Houck kept the Cubs off the scoreboard until Matt Mervis scratched an RBI-single off him with two outs in the seventh, which wound up being the last batter he faced. Sunday was already his third start this season with at least nine strikeouts and zero walks. The 28-year-old boasts a 1.60 ERA, 0.92 WHIP and 41:5 K:BB in 39.1 innings and projects for a road start against the Twins his next time out.

Red Sox's Vaughn Grissom: Strong finish on rehab
Grissom (hamstring) went 4-for-4 with a walk, two RBI and a run scored for Triple-A Worcester on Sunday.
The Red Sox are expected to wrap up Grissom's rehab assignment and activate him for Tuesday's series opener against the Giants. While with the WooSox, Grissom went 10-for-30 with five walks, two steals and three runs scored. Grissom is expected to start at second base, while newcomer Garrett Cooper could slide in at first to create a new right side of the infield.

Red Sox's Jarren Duran: Integral in win
Duran went 1-for-4 with a walk, triple and two RBI in Sunday's 5-4 win over the Cubs.
Duran tripled in two runs in the sixth inning then drew a leadoff walk in the bottom of the ninth before scoring the winning run on Tyler O'Neill's walk-off single. Duran has started all 29 games thus far, including 27 of them as the team's leadoff batter. He's second on the Red Sox with 17 runs and leads the club in triples with three. Because of Ceddanne Rafaela moving from center field to shortstop, Duran is locked in as Boston's starting center fielder.

Red Sox's Tyler O'Neill: Walks it off
O'Neill went 1-for-4 with a walk and an RBI in Sunday's 5-4 win over the Cubs.
O'Neill delivered a walk-off single after the Red Sox squandered a 4-0 lead. His blooper to left against an infield playing in plated Jarren Duran with the winning run. For O'Neil, who was 0-for-3 at the time, the single extended hit streak to seven games, during which he's 11-for-27 with three home runs, five RBI and six runs scored.

Red Sox's Masataka Yoshida: Suffers hand injury in win
Yoshida exited Sunday's 5-4 win over the Cubs in the sixth inning due to a left hand injury, Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic reports.
Yoshida jammed his left hand on a groundout in his first at-bat in the bottom of the first inning, ultimately leaving the game after the top of the sixth inning. Considering the outfielder was able remain in the game as long as he did and even record a hit in his second at-bat, it's possible that the injury is minor. The team will determine if he needs X-rays during Monday's off day, and he can be considered day-to-day for the time being.

Red Sox's Garrett Whitlock: No mound progression yet
Whitlock (oblique) has not thrown off a mound yet in his recovery, Christopher Smith of The Springfield Republican reports.
Whitlock has been on the 15-day injured list with an oblique injury since April 17, but he doesn't appear to be nearing a return quite yet. Manager Alex Cora said Sunday that the right-hander is "feeling better" but he "still feels it" in regards to his left oblique strain, barring the 27-year-old from progressing with any mound work. Chase Anderson was asked to start Thursday against the Guardians, and with Whitlock still unavailable, Anderson could stay in the rotation for the time being.

Red Sox's Justin Slaten: Picks up win
Slaten (2-0) earned the win over the Cubs on Saturday, striking out two over two scoreless innings.
The Red Sox pieced together a bullpen day, opening up an opportunity for Slaten to pick up his second win of the season. The Rule 5 selection has been a find for Boston with one run allowed and two walks over 16.1 innings. Slaten has thrown at least two innings in seven of nine outings.

Red Sox's Bobby Dalbec: Bat shows life in win
Dalbec went 2-for-4 with a double, three RBI and two runs scored in Saturday's 17-0 win over the Cubs.
Dalbec's bat, like many others in the lineup, came alive in the blowout win. His season-opening struggles are epic -- zero hits in his first 19 at-bats and one in the first 32 -- but the corner infielder now has a four-game hit streak (5-for-15). However, it may be too late save his job as the team's primary fill-in at first base while Triston Casas (ribs, 60-day IL) is sidelined. The Red Sox acquired Garrett Cooper from the Cubs on Saturday, and he is expected to get the bulk of the starts at first base until Casas is ready to return. Cooper is expected to be activated in time for Tuesday's series opener against the Giants.

Red Sox's Garrett Cooper: Should be available Tuesday
The Red Sox expect Cooper to be activated for Tuesday's series opener against the Giants, Ian Browne of MLB.com reports.
The Red Sox acquired Cooper from the Cubs for cash considerations Saturday. Boston manager Alex Cora didn't immediately reveal how Cooper will be deployed, but it sounds like the newly acquired first baseman will get the bulk of starts. "Obviously, he's a guy that can put together a good at-bat," Cora said. "He can hit lefties and righties. He's a good defender. We do believe he's going to help us out." Cooper could move immediately to the top of the first-base depth chart.

Red Sox's Joely Rodriguez: Pushed off 40-man roster
The Red Sox designated Rodriguez for assignment Sunday.
Boston recalled right-hander Naoyuki Uwasawa from Triple-A Worcester in a corresponding move, but because Rodriguez doesn't have any minor-league options remaining, he was moved off the 40-man roster to make room on the 26-man active roster for Uwasawa. The lefty reliever has a decent track record at the big-league level, but he struggled in his 11 appearances with Boston so far this season, logging a 6.55 ERA, 1.55 WHIP and 11:2 K:BB in 11 innings. It's unclear if Rodriguez will be a sought-after commodity on the waiver wire despite being on an affordable one-year, $1.5 million contract this season.

Red Sox's Naoyuki Uwasawa: Gets call to majors
The Red Sox recalled Uwasawa from Triple-A Worcester on Sunday.
Uwasawa has made a trio of five-inning starts for Worcester since he was optioned to the affiliate after the Red Sox acquired him from the Rays shortly before Opening Day, but the Japanese right-hander looks like he'll be making his MLB debut as a member of Boston's bullpen. He'll tentatively slot in as a multi-inning relief option, but with three members of the Boston rotation currently on the injured list, Uwasawa could eventually get a chance to make some starts if depth arms such as Cooper Criswell, Josh Winckowski and Chase Anderson aren't able to get the job done as fill-ins in the rotation.

Red Sox's Masataka Yoshida: Four hits in return to lineup
Yoshida went 4-for-5 with an RBI and three runs scored in Saturday's victory over the Cubs.
He did not start the previous five games, as the Red Sox utilized Rafael Devers and Tyler O'Neill at designated hitter as they returned from injuries. Yoshida did his best to make up for lost time Saturday, doubling in a run while also adding three singles. While he has been used very little this week, the expectation is that Yoshida will remain the team's primary DH moving forward.

Red Sox's Tyler O'Neill: Cranks ninth home run
O'Neill went 3-for-5 with a two-run homer and three runs scored in Saturday's win over the Cubs.
O'Neill got the scoring started with a blast over the Green Monster in the bottom of the first inning. It was the first home run this season for the 28-year-old that wasn't a solo shot. O'Neill also added a double, a single and a walk. Only Mike Trout (10) has gone deep more times so far this season.
