Red Sox’ Alex Cora Makes Decision After Unfortunate Injury News originally appeared on Athlon Sports.

MLB insider Jim Callis believes the Boston Red Sox are going to let go of minor-league position players, while holding onto pitchers, at the trade deadline.

The Boston Red Sox’s surplus of outfielders has been a frequent topic of discussion this season.

BOSTON — The Red Sox recalled utility infielder David Hamilton from Triple-A Worcester to take injured Marcelo Mayer’s spot on the 26-man roster.

After Mayer’s injury, the Red Sox recalled infielder David Hamilton, and though Hamilton will see some time at second, Rafaela’s offense has been too valuable to the lineup.

BOSTON -- The Red Sox and Dodgers brought star-studded teams into a highly-anticipated showdown in the 2018 World Series. The Red Sox won the battle in five games while the Dodgers won two titles in the years since then.

Marcelo Mayer's injury is leading to a lot of moving parts for the Red Sox. It could also impact how Craig Breslow approaches next week's trade deadline.
