Roman Anthony has a wrist sprain and is day-to-day. He’ll be out the next couple days but the Red Sox aren’t putting him on the IL as of now.
This is great news for the struggling Red Sox, who already have 12 players on the injured list.
After the game, Anthony spoke with reporters stating he “never even had any pain in my hand before.”
“Just took a swing and it didn’t feel good,” Anthony said. “As I came back in and went under to continue to swing, it just was painful.”
