Red Sox All-Star Lefty Ranger Suárez Expected to Come Off IL and Start Sunday Against Toronto
Ranger Suarez returns from a groin injury after a late scratch, and his start pushes Peyton Tolle to Monday, manager Chad Tracy said.
- Red Sox All-Star left-hander Ranger Suarez will return from the 15-day injured list to start Sunday's series finale against the Toronto Blue Jays at Fenway Park, interim manager Chad Tracy confirmed Saturday.
- The 30-year-old Suarez signed a $130 million, five-year contract in free agency but has not pitched since July 5 due to a left groin strain, leading to his July 9 placement on the 15-day injured list.
- Before his injury, Suarez posted a 4-3 record with a 3.15 ERA over 91 1/3 innings in 17 starts, and Tracy reported that Suarez threw on the field about 2 1/2 hours before Saturday's game.
- Activating Suarez shifts rookie lefty Peyton Tolle's next start to Monday in Sacramento against the Athletics, avoiding disruption to pitcher Patrick Sandoval and pitcher Sonny Gray's routines.
- With a 53-49 record, the Red Sox are contending for the American League East title; the return of Suarez, alongside Sandoval and the upcoming return of pitcher Garrett Crochet, strengthens their post-season rotation.
