US EditionBoston Red Sox Reinstate Alex Bregman From 10-Day Injured List
SUFFOLK COUNTY, MASSACHUSETTS, JUL 11 – David Hamilton is optioned after appearing in 62 games this season to clear a roster spot for Alex Bregman, who returns from a 43-game injury absence, the team announced.
- Alex Bregman returned to the Boston Red Sox lineup on Friday after missing 43 games due to a right quad strain sustained on May 23.
- Bregman's recovery prompted the Red Sox to consider sending rookie Marcelo Mayer or David Hamilton to Triple-A Worcester to clear roster space, while Manager Alex Cora deferred decisions on Mayer's position.
- The Red Sox entered Friday riding a seven-game winning streak, five games above.500, aiming to extend the streak against the Tampa Bay Rays at Fenway Park.
- Bregman led the team offensively before injury with a.299 batting average and.938 OPS, and his return is expected to improve the Red Sox offense by 13.5 percent.
- With Bregman resuming full-time third base duties, the Red Sox strengthen their position in the wild card race and the AL East division may become more competitive.
