The Red Sox made some moves on their day off.
Boston on Thursday announced it reinstated Jonathan Araúz from the COVID-19 injured list. The utility player made the Opening Day roster just days after the 2022 Major League Baseball season began. Upon his reinstatement, Araúz was optioned to Triple-A Worcester.
Araúz is on the 40-man roster, so the Red Sox transferred Josh Taylor to the 60-day IL. The pitcher was dealing with back soreness and suffered a setback earlier this month while on assignment with the WooSox.
The Red Sox are coming off yet another walk-off loss as they prepare to embark on a weekend series with the Texas Rangers that begins Friday night at Globe Life Field.
