Alex Bregman 3B | BOS
Red Sox's Alex Bregman: Return this week not ruled out
Red Sox manager Alex Cora said Monday that Bregman (quadriceps) will be activated from the 10-day injured list "sooner rather than later," Christopher Smith of MassLive.com reports.
According to Cora, Bregman "feels great" and will go through "heavy" workouts Monday and Tuesday. Cora did not rule out Bregman being activated later this week during the team's series against the Rays, but a lot will depend on how the third baseman bounces back from Monday's and Tuesday's workouts. Bregman has been sidelined since late May due to a strained right quad.

Tristan Gray SS | BOS
White Sox's Tristan Gray: Summoned from Triple-A
The White Sox recalled Gray from Triple-A Charlotte on Monday.
Gray has spent the entire 2025 season at Charlotte, slashing .280/.349/.493 with nine home runs across 62 contests. The White Sox selected Gray's contract Saturday to add him to the 40-man roster, and the 29-year-old will now join the 26-man active roster after Ryan Noda (quadriceps) was placed on the 10-day injured list Monday in a corresponding move. Gray is likely to be used mostly in a reserve role while he's up with the big club.
