Nick Sogard Fantasy Stats

Across 213 plate appearances this season, Boston Red Sox infielder Nick Sogard is hitting .267/.364/.406 with four home runs, 16 RBI, and 26 runs scored. The 29-year-old's power upside is limited, as he's posted just a 4.9% barrel rate and a 29.9% hard-hit rate. However, Sogard has kept his strikeout rate under 20% while also walking in 13.1% of his plate appearances. Sogard also has the ability to line up at every defensive spot in the infield, which helps keep him in the Red Sox lineup on a near-everyday basis. Sogard's lack of power and speed caps his fantasy upside and his utility in shallower leagues. Still, in deeper-league formats, his multi-positional eligibility and balanced plate approach make him a useful depth piece to target on the waiver wire.

Across 160 plate appearances in 2026, Boston Red Sox infielder Nick Sogard is hitting .275/.389/.405 with two home runs, 10 RBI, and 20 runs scored. The 28-year-old has spent much of the season in the minors, logging 224 plate appearances between Double-A and Triple-A. However, Sogard appears to have taken over a near-everyday role as Boston's leadoff hitter in recent weeks. Sogard's carrying tool is his ability to get on base, as he's posted a 15.6% walk rate in the big leagues and logged a 19.3% walk rate during his time at Triple-A. While Sogard is unlikely to provide much power production for fantasy managers, he profiles as an asset in both batting average and runs scored, as long as he continues to set the table for Boston's potent lineup. In deeper leagues, Sogard has value on the waiver wire as a versatile depth piece.

The Athletic's Jen McCaffrey writes that Boston Red Sox infielder Nick Sogard will be in the mix for a bench role during spring training, but he will likely start the 2025 season at Triple-A Worcester and serve as depth for the Red Sox as an extra bat. Sogard made his major-league debut in 2024 and didn't look overmatched at all, hitting .273 (21-for-77) with no homers, eight RBI, three stolen bases and 13 runs scored in 86 trips to the plate over 31 games played. The former 12th-round pick by the Tampa Bay Rays in 2019 out of Loyola Marymount University saw most of his playing time at second base but also saw some action at shortstop and third base. At best, Sogard will likely be a utility infielder again for Boston at some point in 2025, putting him off the fantasy radar in mixed leagues. In 96 games at Worcester last year, Sogard hit .283 with 13 homers, 59 RBI and 10 stolen bases.

Boston Red Sox infielder Nick Sogard (calf) is back in the starting lineup ahead of Friday's game against the Baltimore Orioles. Sogard was pulled from Wednesday's game due to calf soreness and sat out of Thursday's contest as a result. He'll cover second base and bat seventh versus right-hander Corbin Burnes. Sogard is slashing .250/.311/.275 with six RBI and two stolen bases in 11 games with the Red Sox. He doesn't offer much power at the plate and has a tough matchup against Burnes here. Fantasy managers should look elsewhere for a streaming option on Friday.

Boston Red Sox manager Alex Cora says second baseman Nick Sogard (calf) fouled a ball off his calf and was tightening up. He was having trouble moving, which is why the club decided to take him out in the ninth inning of Wednesday's game against the visiting Texas Rangers at Fenway Park. The 26-year-old switch-hitter has gone 10-for-40 (.250) with six RBI and two stolen bases as a part-time player for the Red Sox this year. Fantasy managers can label Sogard day-to-day ahead of Thursday's series opener against the division-rival Baltimore Orioles at Camden Yards. If he's unavailable for action this weekend, David Hamilton and Romy Gonzalez would likely split at-bats in a platoon at second base for Boston.
