Red Sox Star Rookie Roman Anthony Out 4-6 Weeks with Oblique Strain
Roman Anthony, batting .292 with an .859 OPS this season, faces a 4-6 week recovery from an oblique strain, impacting Boston's lineup during a critical postseason stretch.
- On September 3, 2025, Alex Cora, manager of the Red Sox, revealed that 21-year-old rookie Roman Anthony will be sidelined with a left oblique injury and added to the injured list.
- Anthony suffered the injury the previous night against Cleveland after leaving Tuesday’s game with oblique tightness and was scheduled for an MRI on Wednesday.
- Since Anthony joined the Red Sox roster on June 9, the team has achieved a 46-27 record, and he has been among their top offensive contributors, hitting for a.292 average with eight homers and maintaining an on-base percentage close to.400.
- Cora remarked on WEEI that Roman Anthony is a key contributor to the team's offense. While acknowledging it may seem tough, the team must continue without him. He also mentioned that although the exact recovery duration is uncertain, it typically ranges from four to six weeks.
- Anthony is expected to miss the rest of the regular season, meaning the team will have to secure a playoff spot and win up to two postseason series without him to advance.
