Vaughn Grissom Gets A Breather On Wednesday

Boston Red Sox infielder Vaughn Grissom is out of the starting lineup ahead of Wednesday's game against the Toronto Blue Jays. Grissom will head to the bench after starting in each of the last three games. He collected four hits with two RBI during that stretch of play. It seems that the Red Sox are going to rotate different players at second base down the stretch of the season. Enmanuel Valdez will cover second base and bat ninth against right-hander Kevin Gausman on Wednesday. Valdez has struggled to the tune of a .219 batting average with six home runs and 28 RBI this season.

Red Sox Call Up Vaughn Grissom

The Boston Red Sox recalled middle infielder Vaughn Grissom from Triple-A Worcester on Friday and placed outfielder Rob Refsnyder (forearm) on the 10-day injured list with a right-forearm strain in a corresponding move. Grissom was expected to be Boston's primary second baseman in his first year in Beantown in 2024, but injuries have limited him to 23 big-league games for the second straight season. The 23-year-old didn't enter the starting lineup for Friday's contest at Fenway Park against the visiting Minnesota Twins, but he could get some playing time at the keystone to close out the year if the Red Sox fall any further from wild-card contention in the American League. Grissom struggled in his 87 plate appearances for Boston earlier this year, going just 12-for-81 (.148) with a double, three RBI and 19 strikeouts.

Vaughn Grissom Reinstated And Optioned To Triple-A

The Boston Red Sox reinstated infielder Vaughn Grissom (hamstring) from the 10-day injured list on Thursday and then optioned him to Triple-A Worcester. Grissom, who was an intriguing breakout player in fantasy in his first year in Boston in 2024, has been far from it this year due to various injuries that have limited him to just 81 at-bats in the big leagues. In those 81 at-bats, hit just .148 with no homers, three RBI and six runs scored in 23 games. We could certainly see Grissom down the stretch to close out the regular season, but it won't change the fact that he's been a massive disappointment after being expected to serve as Boston's starting second baseman. The Red Sox will move forward with a combination of David Hamilton, Romy Gonzalez, Enmanuel Valdez and Nick Sogard at the keystone for now.

Vaughn Grissom Could Stay At Triple-A After Rehab Stint

Boston Red Sox second baseman Vaughn Grissom (hamstring) needs to be activated from the injured list by Aug. 9, but sources indicate he may be optioned to Triple-A Worcester once his rehab assignment expires. With that in mind, the team is still seeking a right-handed infielder ahead of Tuesday's trade deadline. Grissom checked in with the Red Sox at Fenway Park ahead of Monday's series opener against the visiting Seattle Mariners, and the club is pleased with the progress he has made during his minor-league rehab stint. Grissom will resume action at Worcester on Tuesday, and it sounds like Boston wants him to get more action on the farm before rejoining to big-league roster. The 23-year-old infielder was the centerpiece of last offseason's Chris Sale trade for the BoSox, but he's slashing a disastrous .148/.207/.160 with a lone extra-base hit and three RBI across 87 plate appearances in 2024.

Vaughn Grissom Closing In On Rehab Assignment

Boston Red Sox second baseman Vaughn Grissom (hamstring) is turning a corner in his recovery from a strained right hamstring, and manager Alex Cora said before Wednesday's game against the visiting Oakland Athletics that the club hopes to at least start planning out a minor-rehab assignment for him toward the end of this week. The Red Sox want to make sure Grissom is at full strength in both hamstrings before he returns because he hasn't been fully healthy since the winter. Even though the 23-year-old infielder could come back before the end of July and still projects as Boston's primary second baseman when healthy, he's batting just .148 (12-for-81) with one extra-base hit and three RBI over 23 games this season. Grissom shouldn't be stashed outside of the deepest fantasy leagues.

Vaughn Grissom Officially Lands On Injured List

The Boston Red Sox officially placed infielder Vaughn Grissom (hamstring) on the 10-day injured list on Sunday with a right-hamstring strain and also placed infielder/outfielder Romy Gonzalez (hamstring) on the 10-day IL (retroactive to May 31) with a left-hamstring strain. In corresponding moves, right-hander Garrett Whitlock (elbow) was moved to the 60-day IL, infielder/outfielder Jamie Westbrook was selected from Triple-A Worcester and infielder/outfielder Bobby Dalbec was recalled from Worcester. Grissom suffered a mild hamstring strain on Saturday but will have to miss at least the next 10 days. Enmanuel Valdez is playing second and batting fifth on Sunday for Boston against Detroit Tigers right-hander Casey Mize, and he's the most likely to benefit from more playing time with Grissom out. Grissom got a late start to his first season in Boston due to injury and has gone just 12-for-81 (.148) with no homers or steals to this point.

Vaughn Grissom Diagnosed With Mild Hamstring Strain, Heading To IL

Boston Red Sox infielder Vaughn Grissom (hamstring) was diagnosed with a mild right hamstring strain after being removed in Saturday's game against the Detroit Tigers. According to Red Sox manager Alex Cora, Grissom is probably going on the injured list. The 23-year-old grabbed his right hamstring running to first base during a groundout. It's not the same hamstring that caused Grissom to miss all of April. He is hitting .148 (12-for-81) with three RBI over 23 games in 2024. Fantasy managers in deep leagues with IL spots can hold onto Grissom for now. David Hamilton should have an increase in at-bats with Grissom sidelined and is a speculative addition in deep leagues after swiping nine bags over 33 games in 2024.

Vaughn Grissom Getting Scheduled Off Day

Boston Red Sox second baseman Vaughn Grissom is getting a scheduled day off on Saturday against the Minnesota Twins after returning from the injured list to make his season debut in Friday's loss. Grissom will be back in the lineup on Sunday as the Red Sox look to ease him back in. David Hamilton is at the keystone on Saturday and is hitting eighth in the batting order against Twins right-hander Pablo Lopez. The 23-year-old missed the first month of the season with a hamstring injury and went hitless in three at-bats in his first game of the year with Boston on Friday. Grissom might get more frequent rest days over the course of the next couple weeks, but ultimately he's going to serve as the team's everyday second baseman for the rest of the 2024 season if he can stay healthy.

Vaughn Grissom Activated And Starting Friday

Boston Red Sox infielder Vaughn Grissom (hamstring, illness) has been activated from the 10-day injured list on Friday and is making his debut with the team against the Minnesota Twins and right-hander Chris Paddack. Grissom is starting at second base and batting seventh in his season debut. Fantasy managers would like to see Grissom hitting higher in the batting order, but the bottom line is that the middle infielder is finally healthy and ready to take over regular second base duties for the BoSox. The 23-year-old hit a strong .287/.339/.407 the last two years in the big leagues with the Atlanta Braves and should be scooped up immediately off the waiver wire in mixed leagues if he's still available. Grissom has never faced Paddack in his career.

Vaughn Grissom Ready To Return Friday

Boston Red Sox middle infielder Vaughn Grissom (hamstring, illness) is feeling a lot better and is excited to travel with the team to Minnesota for a three-game series against the Twins that starts on Friday. Grissom said if the Red Sox needed him to pinch hit on Thursday, he would have been ready. All signs are pointing to the 23-year-old being activated from the injured list to make his Red Sox debut on Friday. He was initially expected to return this Tuesday, but an illness caused his return to be pushed back. Grissom, who has 15-15 capabilities, even after a late start to the season, will operate as the team's regular second baseman and should be picked up in fantasy leagues if he's available on the waiver wire. Boston acquired Grissom from the Braves as part of the Chris Sale trade in the offseason.
