The Boston Red Sox will be without catcher Christian Vazquez for approximately two months.
Evan Drellich of NBC Sports Boston reported the news, noting Vazquez will be sidelined for six to eight weeks with surgery planned for Tuesday. A pin will be inserted into his fractured finger during the procedure.
Despite the setback, Drellich pointed out manager Alex Cora said he was comfortable with Blake Swihart and Sandy Leon manning the backstop.
