Romy Gonzalez To Begin Rehab Assignment This Week
6 months agoBoston Red Sox infielder/outfielder Romy Gonzalez (hamstring) hit indoors on Saturday, and manager Alex Cora said on Sunday that the hope is Gonzalez will start a minor-league rehab assignment on June 11 with Triple-A Worcester. Gonzalez returned from his first stint on the injured list due to a left-wrist sprain on May 8, but he's back on the IL with a hammy issue. Cora said he doesn't expect Gonzalez to be out "that long." In just 35 at-bats this year for Boston, the 27-year-old is hitting .257 with six RBI. With Vaughn Grissom (hamstring) also on the shelf for Boston, Gonzalez could see some playing time at the keystone in Beantown if he makes it back before Grissom. Enmanuel Valdez is another option at second base.
