Red Sox's John Schreiber: Removed from 40-man roster

The Red Sox designated Schreiber for assignment Tuesday.

Boston booted Schreiber from the 40-man roster to clear a spot for outfielder Franchy Cordero, who was reinstated from the COVID-19 injured list in a corresponding move. A waiver pickup from Pittsburgh in February, Schreiber didn't make a serious run at winning a spot in Boston's Opening Day bullpen this spring.
