There is a "strong possibility" that Martinez (ankle) will play in Game 2 of the ALDS against the Rays on Friday, Christopher Smith of The Springfield Republican reports.

Martinez has been dealing with an ankle injury since the team's final regular-season contest. After missing the AL Wild Card Game, Martinez was added to Boston's ALDS roster but was not in the starting lineup for Game 1. While there is some optimism that Martinez can return, manager Alex Cora also added that there were no guarantees regarding Martinez's availability.
