On April 3rd, Boston Red Sox catcher Carlos Narvaez got scratched from Wednesday's lineup against the Houston Astros right before the first pitch. He was set to start after a day off on Tuesday but got replaced by Connor Wong. The socks ended up losing their series finale 6-4 and no one from the team has spilled the full details yet. Manager Alex Cora kept a vague saying it's just between him and Carlos and stuff like this happens on every squad. Narvaez backed that noting he respects the call and there's nothing major wrong. He just wants to move forward. Both shut down questions Friday morning without much more. Beatrider Chris Cotillo called it out of character for the 27 year old rookie who super well liked with a solid work ethic. He wonders if Narvaez showed up late or missed the meeting and thinks the team should just explain to kill the rumors. Early in the season like this, it stands out big time. Cotillo figures Cora might be sending a wake up message amid the Red Sox's rough start but it didn't click since they dropped that game

anyway. The privacy has folks speculating more than usual. Narvaez is back catching for Friday's home opener versus the San Diego Padres so we'll see if he bounces back strong and puts this behind the clubhouse for good.
