Red Sox News

Ranger Suarez returned to the mound in All-Star form, delivering a scoreless outing against the Blue Jays, but the Red Sox still found themselves on the wrong end of a 0-6 loss yesterday at Fenway. Despite the setback, Boston has been on a solid 5-2 run over the past week, buoyed by the promising emergence of Wilyer Abreu, who is proving to be a bright spot from their past trade deadline moves. The acquisition of Curtis Mead adds another layer of intrigue to the roster, as he brings a strong 134 wRC+ this season, bolstering an infield that has seen its fair share of ups and downs. With Boston sitting just above .500 at 53-50, the pressure is mounting to maintain their Wild Card spot as they face the Jays again today.

Red Sox Notes: Durbin, Trade Targets, Suarez
The Red Sox upgraded their infield yesterday by trading for the Nationals’ Curtis Mead. Having a 134 wRC+ in 327 plate appearances this year, he’s sure to get plenty of at-bats with his new team. The defensive fit was more of an open question, as Mead has mostly played at the infield corners in 2026. […]
