Roman Anthony Heading for the Injured List

The Boston Red Sox plan to put outfielder Roman Anthony (wrist) on the 10-day injured list before Thursday's series opener against the division-rival Tampa Bay Rays, according to Ian Browne of MLB.com. Mickey Gasper will come up from the minors in a corresponding move. Anthony sprained his right wrist in Monday's game against the Detroit Tigers and will require more time to heal. The Red Sox were hoping the outfield prospect would be able to return this weekend against the Rays, but he's just not ready. In the short term, Masataka Yoshida should continue to benefit from regular playing time in the designated hitter spot for Boston against right-handed pitchers. Yoshida is a great source of average -- he's hitting over .300 in limited action so far this year -- but he won't provide much pop to your lineup. It's been a disappointing start to Anthony's first full season in the majors, but fantasy managers should be stashing him everywhere for his high-end power/speed upside. Since debuting for the BoSox late in 2025, the 21-year-old former second-rounder has hit .273/.383/.421 with an .804 OPS, nine homers, 37 RBI, 60 runs, and six steals in 433 plate appearances.

Roman Anthony Remains Sidelined in Series Opener Versus Rays

Boston Red Sox outfielder Roman Anthony (wrist) continues to sit out of the starting lineup for Thursday's series opener at Fenway Park against the division-rival Tampa Bay Rays, per MLB.com. It will be Anthony's third straight missed game after spraining his right wrist on a swing during Monday's contest against the Detroit Tigers. The Red Sox are optimistic that Anthony won't have to miss much more time, but if he cannot return to action this weekend against Tampa, he could be placed on the 10-day injured list. Jarren Duran is starting in left field again and will bat leadoff for the BoSox, with Masataka Yoshida serving as the designated hitter and batting fifth against Rays right-hander Griffin Jax. An extended absence for Anthony will continue to benefit the left-handed-hitting Yoshida, who is hitting .310 (18-for-58) on the year, but with zero home runs. Anthony looked like the real deal as a top prospect in baseball during his MLB debut in 2025 before ending the year on the injured list, but he's struggled so far in 2026, slashing .229/.354/.321 with a .675 OPS, only one homer, five RBI, 12 runs, and two steals in 109 at-bats. Fantasy managers need to be patient and hope his wrist injury doesn't lead to an IL stint.

Roman Anthony Still Sidelined With Wrist Issue

Boston Red Sox outfielder Roman Anthony (wrist) remains sidelined for Wednesday's series finale in Detroit against the Tigers, according to MLB.com. Jarren Duran is starting in left field for the BoSox and will hit leadoff against Tigers right-hander Jack Flaherty. Anthony injured his right wrist in Monday's game against the Tigers and returned to Boston the next day to be evaluated. The 21-year-old outfield prospect was diagnosed with a sprained right wrist and is considered day-to-day after undergoing an MRI exam, but he won't be available to return for the series finale in Motown on Wednesday. Although he got encouraging news, don't rule out an injured-list stint for Anthony if he cannot return for the upcoming four-game series in Boston against the division-rival Tampa Bay Rays. Anthony is a high-upside power/speed outfielder, but injuries have slowed him down so far after he debuted with the team in 2025. Through 30 games this year, Anthony has been a disappointment with a .229/.354/.321 slash line, .675 OPS, one homer, five RBI, 12 runs scored, and two stolen bases. Check back on Thursday to see if he can return to the starting nine.

Roman Anthony Pulled Early on Monday After Tweaking his Wrist

Boston Red Sox outfielder Roman Anthony (wrist) was forced from Monday's series opener against the Detroit Tigers early after tweaking his wrist in his first at-bat on a swing, according to Ian Browne of MLB.com. Masataka Yoshida replaced Anthony in left field. The 21-year-old Anthony should be considered day-to-day for now, but fantasy managers will want to check back for an update on his status after Boston's game against Detroit. So far in 2026, Anthony has been a disappointment for fantasy managers, as he entered Monday's contest with the Tigers with a .231/.357/.324 slash line, .681 OPS, only one home run, five RBI, 12 runs scored, and two stolen bases in 29 games across 129 plate appearances. He was one of the top prospects in all of baseball in 2025 before getting called up for his major-league debut. Before an injury ended his season early in September, Anthony was living up to expectations with a .292/.396/.463 slash line, eight home runs, 32 RBI, and four steals in his first 71 big-league games. UPDATE: X-rays on Anthony's right wrist came back negative, but he will fly to Boston on Tuesday to visit with a hand specialist.

Roman Anthony Returns as DH on Sunday

Boston Red Sox outfielder Roman Anthony (back) has returned to the team's starting lineup for Sunday's series finale against the hosting Baltimore Orioles and right-hander Kyle Bradish at Camden Yards, serving as the designated hitter and batting third in the order, per MLB.com. Anthony missed a fourth straight game on Saturday after feeling upper-back tightness on a swing in Tuesday's game against the division-rival New York Yankees. Anthony ended up missing a little more time than originally expected, but he's now back in the starting lineup on Sunday in Baltimore. Fantasy managers will be hoping that the 21-year-old former second-round pick in 2022 can get things going at the plate after a quiet start to his first full season in the big leagues in 2026. Anthony comes into Sunday's tilt with a .225/.361/.325 slash line with a homer, four RBI, 11 runs scored, and two steals in his 80 at-bats. Despite the slow start, Anthony has high-end power/speed potential in all fantasy formats. He's gone 1-for-3 in his career against Bradish.

Roman Anthony Still Out With Back Injury on Saturday

Boston Red Sox outfielder Roman Anthony (back) will miss a fourth straight game on Saturday on the road in Baltimore against the division-rival Orioles, according to MLB.com. Jarren Duran is in left field again and will hit sixth against Orioles left-hander Trevor Rogers. Anthony felt upper-back tightness after a swing in Tuesday's game against the New York Yankees and hasn't played since. The Red Sox were optimistic that Anthony would return for the series opener at Camden Yards on Friday, but they have decided to give him a couple more days off. The injury wasn't considered serious initially, but if the young left-handed-hitting outfielder misses the entire series in Baltimore, Boston might consider placing him on the injured list. With Duran sidelined this week, Andruw Monasterio has seen additional starts as the team's designated hitter. One of the top prospects in all of baseball before making his MLB debut last year, Anthony is off to a slow start in 2026, hitting .225 (18-for-80) with a homer, four RBI, 11 runs, and two stolen bases in his first 22 games played. Check back on Sunday to see if Anthony is ready to return to the field.

Roman Anthony Still Out on Friday With Back Injury

Boston Red Sox outfielder Roman Anthony (back) will miss a third straight game on Friday in the series opener against the division-rival Baltimore Orioles at Camden Yards, according to MLB.com. Anthony experienced some upper-back tightness on a swing against the New York Yankees on Tuesday and has missed the last two games. The Red Sox are labeling the young left-handed-hitting outfielder as day-to-day for now, but that could change if Anthony is unable to play at all in the three-game series against Baltimore this weekend. Jarren Duran is starting in left field for Boston and will bat leadoff for the club on Friday versus O's right-hander Brandon Young. Injuries cut the 21-year-old Anthony's season short last year, but he still managed to hit an impressive .292/.396/.463 with an .859 OPS, eight homers, 32 RBI, 48 runs, and four steals in his first 71 big-league games. Anthony has gotten off to a slow start in 2026 (.225/.361/.325 with a .686 OPS in 22 games played), but he's still one of the top young outfielders in the game with tons of long-term upside.

Roman Anthony Hopes to Play on Friday

Boston Red Sox outfielder Roman Anthony (back) said that he felt tightness in his upper back around the scapula/neck area after his line drive in Tuesday's game against the New York Yankees. However, Anthony also said he's feeling much better and is hoping to play in Friday's contest in Baltimore against the division-rival Orioles. He will see how he feels on Friday morning. The young left-handed-hitting outfielder is currently day-to-day and has missed Boston's last two games, but fantasy managers will want to check back later on Friday to see if he's in the starting nine for the BoSox for the series opener at Camden Yards. The 21-year-old former second-rounder in 2022 has hit just .225 (18-for-80) in his first 22 games in 2026 while adding a homer, four RBI, 11 runs scored, and two stolen bases in 97 plate appearances. Fantasy managers shouldn't be panicking just yet, and if Anthony is back in action on Friday, you should return him to starting lineups.

Roman Anthony Won't Play in Series Finale Against Yankees

Boston Red Sox manager Alex Cora said that outfielder Roman Anthony (back) will sit out of Thursday's series finale at Fenway Park against the division-rival New York Yankees as the Red Sox look to avoid the sweep, according to Rob Bradford of WEEI. Outfielder Jarren Duran will bat leadoff, and outfielder Ceddanne Rafaela will be in the two-hole in the batting order against Yankees right-hander Cam Schlittler. Boston held Anthony out of Wednesday's loss to New York due to a sore back. He's considered day-to-day for now and will miss a second straight game. Fantasy managers will want to check back on Friday to see if he's feeling good enough to return to the starting nine in the series opener in Houston against the Astros. The 21-year-old former second-rounder in 2022 has gotten off to a slow start in 2026 in his first full season in the big leagues, going 18-for-80 (.225) with a homer, four RBI, 11 runs scored, and two stolen bases. It's too early to be worried about Anthony, and hopefully the time off this week will get him right when he returns to the field.

Roman Anthony Day-to-Day With Sore Back

Boston Red Sox manager Alex Cora said that outfielder Roman Anthony (back) is dealing with a sore back and is day-to-day, according to Mac Cerullo of the Boston Herald. Anthony came down with some back tightness on Tuesday and is not in the starting nine for Wednesday's game against the division-rival New York Yankees with a left-hander on the mound. Fantasy managers will want to check back to see if Anthony is ready to return for Thursday's series finale. With Anthony out on Wednesday, Andruw Monasterio is serving as the team's designated hitter. The 21-year-old Anthony was as advertised in his major-league debut in 71 games in 2025, slashing .292/.396/.463 with an .859 OPS, eight homers, 32 RBI, 48 runs, and four steals in 303 plate appearances, but he's gone only 18-for-80 (.225) so far in 2026 with a homer and four RBI in 22 games played in his first full big-league season. It's too early to panic about Anthony, and hopefully, he can avoid a trip to the injured list.
