Red Sox Activate 1B Willson Contreras From IL, Return Him to Lineup
Contreras returns after two rehab games, and Boston will add its team leader in homers and RBIs back to the middle of the order.
- On Sunday, the Boston Red Sox activated first baseman Willson Contreras from the 10-day injured list, slating him to bat cleanup against the Kansas City Royals at Fenway Park.
- The 34-year-old had been sidelined since August 31 with a strained left hamstring. He played two rehab games for Double-A Portland, going 2-for-7 with two RBIs.
- Boston interim manager Chad Tracy called Contreras an "important piece to the offense," like the "aircraft carrier there in the middle." Contreras leads the team with 26 home runs and 79 RBIs.
- To create roster space, the Red Sox placed infielder Anthony Seigler on the 10-day injured list with right wrist inflammation after he exited Saturday's 5-1 win over the Royals.
- All-Star center fielder Ceddanne Rafaela targets a return from her quad strain during the upcoming Tampa series, while reliever Tyron Guerrero will travel to Texas on Tuesday.
