Red Sox Welcome Back Key Veterans | MLB News

The Red Sox are firing up for the playoffs with Roman Anthony and Trevor Story back in the lineup after lengthy injuries — Anthony missed 100 games with a sprained wrist, Story sat out 92 with a sports hernia. Both players, eager to contribute rather than arrive as superheroes, are ready to plug into a team fighting for the wild card. Anthony, just 22, debuted as DH against the Yankees; Story, 33, returned at shortstop. Interim manager Chad Tracy praised their resilience and impact. Anthony’s rehab showed power — two homers, seven RBIs in eight games — while Story hit .206 with three homers before his injury. To make room, Mickey Gasper and Anthony Seigler were sent down. With the Sox trailing the Yankees by three games for the top wild card spot, this roster shakeup could be exactly what they need to turn the tide.
