Boston Red Sox

BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS - JUNE 03: Trevor Story #10 of the Boston Red Sox heads back to the dugout after he struck out swinging in the second inning against the Los Angeles Angels at Fenway Park on June 03, 2025 in Boston, Massachusetts. (Photo by Elsa/Getty Images) | Getty Images Just yesterday we told you about how well Nick Sogard was doing down in AAA. Well, now we’ll get a chance to see if he can keep that going in the big leagues. Ahead of tonight’s game against the Braves, the Sox called up Sogard to take the place of Trevor Story, who has been placed on the 10-day IL. If you’re thinking to yourself, *wait… Trevor Story is hurt?* You’re not alone. But Chris Cotillo reports that he’s been “battling a groin issue” since late April. It goes without saying that this groin issue is probably minor, and probably the type of thing he’d keep playing through if he wasn’t literally one of the very worst hitters in baseball this year. But he is, raising the question of whether this this a “phantom IL” stint and, if so, will MLB investigate? My gut says and yes to the former and no to the latter. And, anyway, MLB should probably spend some time investigating Aroldis Chapman’s hat from last night’s game:

Suffice it to say, Trevor Story is not going to be the shortstop on the next great Red Sox team. So it will be interesting to see whether the Sox start the clock on the era at shortstop now, or whether mans the position for the next week or two. Stay tuned.
