Episode Details

Trevor Story’s return to the Red Sox lineup is on hold — not due to setbacks, but as part of a smart, planned rest. After missing time since May with a sports hernia and hitting just .206 this season, Story’s big contract has been overshadowed by injuries. Though August 21st was the expected return date, he’ll miss the next game while utility man Isiah Kiner-Falefa steps in for Worcester. The Red Sox are holding strong in the Wild Card race, but now face tough roster decisions as Story, Roman Anthony, and Kiner-Falefa all approach comeback timelines. With Andruw Monasterio delivering at shortstop, the team may platoon Story and Monasterio — possibly at second base — creating an intriguing infield puzzle as they navigate full health.
