Red Sox's Kristian Campbell: Taking seat Tuesday
Campbell is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Mariners.
Campbell started the previous nine games -- including a look at designated hitter Monday -- and will receive a day off after batting .280 (7-for-25) with four walks, a double, a homer, five RBI and two runs during that span. The rookie second baseman still has an underwhelming .675 OPS through his first 65 big-league games, but the departure of Rafael Devers should help him maintain a consistent spot in the lineup, at least for the near future.

Red Sox's Wilyer Abreu: Starting rehab assignment
Abreu (oblique) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Worcester on Tuesday.
Abreu resumed swinging a bat without issue this past Friday and is ready to test things out in a game setting. Barring any setbacks, the outfielder will be activated from the 10-day injured list Friday when the Red Sox begin a series in San Francisco.

Red Sox's David Hamilton: Starts at second base
Hamilton started at second base and went 0-for-3 in Monday's 2-0 win over the Mariners.
A random start at second base for Hamilton isn't typically significant, but this one came in the first game the Red Sox played without Rafael Devers. Kristian Campbell, Boston's primary second baseman, served as the designated hitter, which had been Devers' role all season. Hamilton is considered the superior fielder, and the Devers trade allows manager Alex Cora to keep Campbell's bat in the lineup without sacrificing a key defensive position. One game is not determinative, so it would be wise to monitor how Cora handles infielder roles going forward. Eventually, Alex Bregman (quad) will return, and Marcelo Mayer could also be in the second-base mix.

Red Sox's Abraham Toro: Delivers two-out RBI in win
Toro went 1-for-3 with a walk and an RBI in Monday's 2-0 win over Seattle.
Toro's two-out single in the third inning drove in Boston's second run. He's recently moved up the batting order against right-handers -- Toro hit third against the three previous righties faced -- and batted second Monday, the spot that had belonged to Rafael Devers for much of the season. He'll continue to hold the strong side of a platoon at first base and could get starts at third base when Red Sox manager Alex Cora doesn't want to expose Marcelo Mayer to a southpaw. Toro is batting .317/.345/.538 with five home runs, eight doubles, 13 RBI and 15 runs scored over 30 games.

Red Sox's Roman Anthony: Slugs first big-league homer
Anthony went 1-for-4 with a solo home run Monday in a 2-0 win over Seattle.
Anthony provided all the offense the Red Sox would need with his 391-foot solo blast in the first inning. The long ball was the first of Anthony's career and just his second hit of any type. Anthony has gone a meager 2-for-21 through seven games, though he's managed to squeeze out a productive four RBI during that span.

Red Sox's Aroldis Chapman: Fans side for save
Chapman earned a save against the Mariners on Monday, striking out all three batters he faced in one inning of work.
Chapman had little trouble protecting a two-run lead in the ninth frame, as he fired 10 of 13 pitches for strikes and punched out Randy Arozarena, Dylan Moore and Donovan Solano in order. The veteran lefty has a 10-game streak of outings in which he hasn't given up an earned run, and during that stretch he's posted a dominant 14:1 K:BB while allowing just two hits over nine innings. Chapman has successfully converted 13 of 14 save chances on the campaign, and his 42:9 K:BB, 1.50 ERA and 0.83 WHIP through 30 frames make him one of the league's most reliable closers this season.

Red Sox's Lucas Giolito: Dominant in victory
Giolito (3-1) earned the win over Seattle on Monday, allowing three hits and issuing one walk while striking out 10 batters over six scoreless innings.
This was arguably Giolito's finest start of the campaign, as he racked up a season-high 10 punchouts and tied a season low in allowing three hits. The veteran righty didn't surrender any extra-base hits and missed plenty of bats with 18 swinging strikes. Giolito has had three bad blowouts during which he's yielded six or more runs, but he's also allowed one run or fewer five times in nine total starts. He's given up just one run -- which was unearned -- and six hits across 12 frames over his past two appearances, and he'll look to keep rolling in his next start, which lines up to be a road matchup in San Francisco.

Red Sox's Kristian Campbell: First crack at DH gig
Campbell will serve as the designated hitter and bat ninth against the Mariners on Monday, Adam Jude of The Seattle Times reports.
The Red Sox will be experimenting with their lineup after trading Rafael Devers to the Giants on Sunday. Campbell will be the first to take on DH duties while David Hamilton starts at second base. Campbell has gone 8-for-37 (.216) with two doubles, one home run and five RBI since the beginning of June.

Red Sox's Brandon Clarke: Out with blister
Clarke has not pitched for High-A Greenville since May 24 due to a blister caused by a hangnail issue, SoxProspects.com reports.
Clarke was one of the top breakout prospects of the first two months, as the 2024 fifth-round pick logged a 1.88 ERA, 0.67 WHIP and 38:9 K:BB in 24 innings across Single-A and High-A. He has yet to throw more than 4.2 innings in a pro start but has demonstrated elite stuff from the left side. Clarke has not been placed on the injured list despite being sidelined for over three weeks.

Red Sox's Nate Eaton: Taking Devers' spot on roster
The Red Sox will recall Eaton from Triple-A Worcester prior to Monday's game in Seattle, Gabrielle Starr of the Boston Herald reports.
Eaton is taking the roster spot vacated by Rafael Devers, who was traded to the Giants on Sunday. The 28-year-old utility player was up for one day with the Red Sox earlier this month but did not make an appearance. He'll operate in a reserve role.
