Password confirmed: Red Sox call up outfielder Jhostynxon Garcia, source says https://t.co/7HHGmxBGF5
The Boston Red Sox placed starting right fielder Wilyer Abreu on the 10-day injured list, retroactive to Aug. 18, after the 26-year-old strained his right calf during Sunday’s game against the Miami Marlins. Abreu leads the club with 22 home runs and 69 RBIs while posting an .811 on-base-plus-slugging percentage over 108 games. His absence comes as Boston opens a pivotal weekend series in New York against the division-leading Yankees, whom it trails by 1.5 games for the American League’s top wild-card spot. To fill the vacancy, the Red Sox promoted 22-year-old outfielder Jhostynxon Garcia from Triple-A Worcester. Ranked the organization’s No. 3 prospect by MLB Pipeline, Garcia has combined for 20 homers, 73 RBIs and an .875 OPS across Double-A and Triple-A this season. He will wear No. 51 and is expected to join the lineup at Yankee Stadium. The move underscores Boston’s reliance on its farm system as it navigates injuries during a late-season playoff push.
