Grissom (hamstring/illness) was reinstated from the 10-day injured list and is starting at second base Friday against the Twins.

Boston Red Sox chief baseball officer Craig Breslow believes manager Alex Cora is doing a great job in getting the most out of the team despite a slew of crippling injuries to begin the season."(He deserves) a ton of credit," Breslow told WEEI's "The Greg Hill Show" on Thursday. "I think it would be really easy to look at the injuries and specifically who has suffered from those injuries and kind of think it would be really difficult to overcome those, and that the odds are just stacked against us. Instead, I think the complete opposite has been true."Boston is off to an 18-13 start with a plus-41 run differential despite injuries to Rafael Devers, Trevor Story, Vaughn Grissom, Triston Casas, Nick Pivetta, Brayan Bello, and Garrett Whitlock."I think that is a credit to Alex and his ability to create a really positive and strong culture and connect guys and relate to them and get them to believe in what we're trying to do here," Breslow added.Entering Thursday's action, the Red Sox rotation boasts a 2.60 ERA - the lowest in baseball - and owns the second-best fWAR (5.1), while the club's offense ranks 11th with a 107 wRC+ and has hit the seventh-most home runs (36).Copyright © 2024 Score Media Ventures Inc.
