Manager Alex Cora said he expects Bogaerts (ankle) to play in Thursday's series finale against the Athletics, Christopher Smith of MassLive.com reports.
Bogaerts is sitting out Wednesday's game after fouling a ball off his foot Tuesday, though he never actually exited Tuesday's contest. After the foul ball, Bogaerts was thrown out at third base trying for a triple during the ninth inning. The team didn't provide an official diagnosis, but it appears the 26-year-old is just dealing with a sore ankle/foot and may make a quick return to the lineup. Brock Holt is filling in at shortstop for the Red Sox in his absence.
