Roman Anthony's Red Sox Return Delayed Before Crucial Yankees Series originally appeared on NESN. Add NESN as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
The Boston Red Sox will begin one of their biggest series of the season without Roman Anthony. Anthony remained with Triple-A Worcester on Friday instead of joining Boston for its series opener against the New York Yankees, according to Tommy Cassell of the Worcester Telegram & Gazette.
The development might disappoint Red Sox fans who hoped Anthony's two-hit performance Thursday would serve as the final step in his rehab **** ignment. However, there is no indication the 22-year-old suffered a setback with the torn ligament in his finger that has sidelined him since May.
Instead, the Red Sox appear to be exercising patience with one of their most important players.
Anthony went 2-for-4 with an RBI double and a single Thursday. He has batted .304 across rehab stops with Double-A Portland and Worcester while hitting two home runs. Those numbers suggest Anthony is close. His own evaluation explained why Boston might want to give him more time.
