Muncy isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Rockies.

Muncy will take a day to regroup Saturday after going 0-for-10 with four strikeouts since the start of April. Luis Urias will get the nod at second base instead and bat eighth.

Torres (oblique) began hitting off a tee in the batting cages Saturday, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.

Torres said afterward that his oblique is beginning to feel much better, though there is still no timeline in place for his return. He's eligible to return from the injured list Tuesday but will likely require more than a minimum-length stay.

Rengifo was removed from Friday's game against the Guardians due to left hamstring tightness, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.

Rengifo went 1-for-2 with a double before being replaced on defense when the Angels took the field in the fourth inning. He can be considered day-to-day for the time being, though it's worth noting that the 28-year-old dealt with issues in the same hamstring during spring training.

Campbell went 1-for-2 with two walks, one RBI, three runs scored and a stolen base in Friday's 13-9 win over the Cardinals.

Campbell made an impact in several ways, including stealing his first career base and scoring in the third inning. The rookie continues to justify the club's confidence in him, hitting .423 with two home runs, five RBI, nine runs scored and a steal in his first 33 major-league plate appearances. While it's a small sample size, the 22-year-old was a 20-20 player in the minors last season and should continue to showcase a blend of power and speed moving forward.

Campbell went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer in Thursday's 8-4 victory over Baltimore.

Campbell extended the Red Sox lead to 4-1 in the second inning with a homer off Charlie Morton that left his bat at 104 mph, giving the rookie his second home run this season. Campbell has gotten off to a blistering start to his major-league career, going 10-for-24 (.417) with six runs scored, four RBI and a 1.333 OPS in his first seven games.

Chisholm went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run, a walk and a stolen base in Thursday's 9-7 win over Arizona.

Chisholm took Diamondbacks right-hander Merrill Kelly deep for a two-run shot in the fourth inning, which helped chase the struggling righty from the game. The speedy 27-year-old slugger now has four homers -- tied for third in the majors -- through six games for a fast start to 2025, hitting .292 with eight RBI, six runs scored and one stolen base over 24 at-bats.

Rodgers went 1-for-3 with a walk Wednesday against the Giants.

It wasn't a standout performance for Rodgers, but he started for the second straight game at second base and has now been in the lineup for four of Houston's six games. His start to the season hasn't been particularly strong, though Rodgers does have a hit in consecutive contests. He'll likely need to pick up his performance to hold off Mauricio Dubon, who has started only twice.

The Red Sox signed Campbell to an eight-year, $60 million contract extension Wednesday, Christopher Smith of MassLive.com reports.

Julian McWilliams of The Boston Globe relays that the extension contains an $19 million club option for 2033 and a $21 million club option for 2034, so the total value of the deal could reach an even $100 million. The Red Sox locked up Garrett Crochet on a long-term contract earlier this week and now have signed one of their young position players to a contract extension. Campbell, 22, is off to a great start in his major-league career, going 6-for-16 with one home run and a 5:4 K:BB through five games.

Sosa is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's game versus the Twins.

Sosa has now started four of the first six contests this season at second base. He will begin Wednesday's tilt on the bench as Brooks Baldwin mans the keystone for the White Sox.

Sosa went 3-for-4 with a double Tuesday against the Twins.

Sosa made an early impression by slugging a home run on Opening Day. However, he was hitless across his last eight plate appearances entering Tuesday's action, and he now has four hits across 16 at-bats for the season. Sosa has started four of five games at second base with Josh Rojas (toe) sidelined.
