Red Sox put Mayer on 10-day IL, Cheng to fill in at shortstop

Boston placed rookie shortstop Marcelo Mayer on the 10-day injured list with a bone stress reaction in his left ulna, recalling Tsung-Che Cheng to handle infield duties. Mayer had been getting time at short as Trevor Story was out, but will join Story on the IL. The move tightens Boston’s middle-infield depth as other infielders are also sidelined, with Cheng expected to provide reliable glove work at short while the team contends in a weak AL.

Durbin Upgrade Prompts Red Sox Infield Shuffle

Boston added Caleb Durbin in a six-player trade with Milwaukee, giving the Sox a versatile second/third baseman and prompting questions about infield alignment as Mayer, Isiah Kiner-Falefa, and a shoulder-injured Romy Gonzalez compete for at-bats. Durbin is expected to see regular action in the middle infield, with Trevor Story handling shortstop for now and IKF as the primary backup. In the outfield, Boston plans to use Wilyer Abreu as an everyday player alongside Jarren Duran, Ceddanne Rafaela, Roman Anthony, and Masataka Yoshida, though Yoshida’s big contract and Abreu’s left-handed splits could shape regular playing time. Spring training will clarify the exact lineup and roles.

Marcelo Mayer Promoted to Double-A Portland in Red Sox System

Red Sox top prospect Marcelo Mayer is one step closer to the big leagues as he moves to Portland. However, neither he nor shortstop Yu Chang, who is on a rehab assignment, will be helping the struggling Sox bats anytime soon. Meanwhile, former Red Sox player Doug Mientkiewicz says he will "die a lonely man," and Alex Cora is fine with the team's recent 4-5 road trip. The Celtics' big game is also taking attention away from the Red Sox.
