Red Sox Minor Lines: Trevor Story rehabs
Over the Monster • • sports
Key Points:
- Worcester WooSox lost 6-9 to Buffalo, with pitcher John Holobetz struggling by giving up six runs on six hits in just eight outs, raising concerns about his readiness for a potential major league call-up.
- Holobetz, acquired for Quinn Priester in 2025, is unlikely to be a direct replacement for struggling MLB pitcher Patrick Sandoval, but the Sox may need to rely on someone as Sandoval continues to struggle.
- Shortstop Trevor Story returned from injury, going 1-2 with a double, providing some offensive pop and possibly explaining why the Sox did not address the shortstop position during the trade deadline.
- Portland Sea Dogs fell 6-8 to Binghamton despite Jack Winnay’s 17th homer of 2026, with bullpen struggles including early runs allowed by Reidis Sena and Morgan McSweeney contributing to the loss.
- Greenville Drive secured a 10-5 win aided by Justin Gonzales’ two home runs and Yophery Rodriguez’s 14th homer, overcoming pitching challenges and providing a power surge to clinch the victory.
