Red Sox Rookie Marcelo Mayer to Undergo Season-Ending Wrist Surgery

Marcelo Mayer will miss the rest of 2025 due to surgery for a triangular fibrocartilage complex tear after an injection failed to heal his wrist injury, Red Sox say.

  • Red Sox manager Alex Cora revealed before Sunday's game that Marcelo Mayer will undergo season-ending wrist surgery for a TFCC tear, requiring a three-month recovery.
  • Earlier this month, Mayer received an anti-inflammation injection Aug. 2, but his right wrist tear persisted, leading to season-ending surgery.
  • Hitting.228/.272/.402 in 44 games, Marcelo Mayer, infielder, played mostly third base, hitting four homers and 10 RBIs for Boston Red Sox.
  • Amid a tight wild-card race, the Boston Red Sox sit 68-56 and lose Mayer for the season, affecting their playoff push in the AL East, five games behind the Blue Jays.
  • Looking toward next season, Cora expects Mayer to be ready for spring training 2026, emphasizing he's 'a big part of the future' of the organization.
