The Red Sox, or what’s left of them, try desperately to get on the board against the Rays behind Chris Sale tonight in St. Pete (7:10 p.m., NESN).
The Red Sox made more moves before Wednesday’s game, shown below.
López, who played with Triston Casas for Team USA at the Olympics, will be making his major-league debut and starting at second base in this game.
As if things weren’t bad enough heading into yesterday’s game, which the Sox lost, of course, Xander Bogaerts was pulled early on because of a positive COVID-19 test, which means he, like so many others, is unavailable for today’s game against the mighty Drew Rasmussen.
